CHILLICOTHE, Ohio - The Chillicothe Paints, presented by Adena Health System, used seven runs and seven hits to top the West Virginia Miners 7-4 in game one of the doubleheader Saturday night at VA Memorial Stadium.

The Paints (12-4) started the scoring off in the bottom of the first with a Brett Carson RBI single, scoring Santrel Farmer and giving the Paints an early 1-0 lead.

West Virginia (4-10) struck back in the top of the second, capitalizing on a walk and a single to left center, tying the game at 1-1.

The Miners would score again in the top of the third inning on a single down the right-field line, giving them their first lead a 2-1 in the third.

Carson would single again in the bottom of the third, again scoring Farmer to tie it up at 2-2. Tim Orr would follow and ground into a double play, scoring Williams and giving the Paints the lead back at 3-2 through three.

An error on a play at second base allowed the Paints to add to their lead, making it 4-2. Carson would pick up his third RBI of the game on a sacrifice fly to left to make it 5-2. Orr would send a double to left-center field that scored two, stretching the lead to 7-2 after four.

In the top of the seventh, the Miners scored one on a triple to the wall by Eddie León, making the score 7-3. A double by Coby Tweten scored León, cutting the Paints' lead to 7-4, the eventual final.
