Controversy mars the end of a South Carolina high school baseball playoff game
A South Carolina high school playoff baseball game ended in controversy when a catcher was called for obstruction while applying a tag at home plate. Powdersville secured a 5-4 win over Hanahan in a 12-inning game on Wednesday.
