Grant Southerland's grand slam highlighted a six-run outburst in the first inning as Fayetteville cruised past West in the first game of a 7A-West doubleheader in Centerton, 10-0.

The Purple'Dogs (6-8, 3-1 7A-West) already led 1-0 on Jeff Sinacore's RBI double before Southerland's blast. That was more than enough run support for Miller Pleimann, who only allowed a first-inning single by Hunter Mayes and struck out six through five innings.

Sinacore had a pair of RBI doubles in the second game to help Fayetteville sweep the doubleheader 4-2 and keep West winless in conference play. Southerland also had an RBI single, while Barrett Banister also drove in a run.

West (7-5, 0-4) did its scoring with an RBI groundout by Will Jarrett in the fourth and back-to-back doubles by Joey Aden and Hunter Mayes in the sixth.
