Randolph-Macon emphatically erased Virginia Wesleyan’s hex. The Yellow Jackets scored six first-inning runs on the way to a 6-2 victory in the first game between the two Sunday in the double-elimination NCAA Division III softball championships in Bloomington, Illinois. The win set up a second meeting between RMC, which has one loss in the championships, and VWU, which was 2-0 in the championships before the loss to RMC, Sunday at 5 p.m. for a spot in the finals.

Davis drove a two-run homer in the second inning and Boswell added a bases-empty homer in the fifth inning as the eighth-seeded Yellow Jackets knocked out fifth-seeded Saint Mary’s of Minnesota 6-3.

If the Double-A Connecticut Defenders were going to relocate to Richmond for 2010, a proposed $15.4 million deal with Richmond Baseball Club LC, a local ownership group, needed to close by then. It did not. With that puzzling background, the Richmond Flying Squirrels played their 1,000th game at The Diamond Thursday night. “This is an ‘Oh gosh’ moment,” Lou DiBella, the Flying Squirrels managing general partner, said of the occasion.

The win by the Marlins, who needed only five innings to down the Yellow Jackets in a run-rule closure, is the fifth over RMC in five meetings this season.
