SHERIDAN - Hunter Brantley and Colton Sellers collaborat­ed on an outstandin­g pitching performanc­e, as the duo combined for a three-hitter to lead the El Dorado Oilers to a 5-4 win over White Hall late Friday night at the Sheridan Wood Bat Tournament.

Brantley fought his control by issuing six walks, but he struck out nine while allowing three hits and four runs (two earned) in five innings of work.

Sellers picked up the save, recording a walk and a strikeout in a scoreless inning in relief.

The Oilers won despite being held to three hits themselves with Joe Lowe, Reagan Cates and Chad Butler each finishing with one hit in the win.

Lowe doubled, scored a run and had a stolen base, while Cates drew two walks, drove in two runs and stole a base.

Butler had a walk, a stolen base and an RBI, while Robbie Roberson walked twice, drove in a run with a sacrifice bunt, stole one base and scored two runs.

The tournament is scheduled to conclude today.

After this weekend's play, the Oilers will face the Bryant Black Sox on the road in a doublehead­er on Tuesday.
