“I’ve put in a lot practice and a lot of hard work over the years,” Cutting said. “I guess it’s paying off.”

In the sequel, the Wolverines broke open a closely-contested game with six runs in the fourth inning to take a 9-1 advantage. They added two more in the fifth to seal a 11-1 victory in five innings.
