Gulfport pulled into a tie for the third seed in Region 4-7A Tuesday night.
The home-standing Admirals nipped D’Iberville 4-3 with a walk-off win in the bottom of the seventh inning.
The decision leaves both Gulfport and DHS knotted up at 9-7 in the region race with two game to go. An Admiral win either Friday night or Saturday would give GHS the third seed a drop a suddenly struggling Warrior squad to the fourth seed. D’Iberville has lost six straight league games.

Brodie Hignight’s RBI-single provided the game-wiining run for Gulfport.
Thomas Stennis took the pitching win with three frames of relief work. Jackson Ulmer suffered the loss.
Sam Tindell, who scored the winning run, had two hits for GHS.
Ayden Demoran, Carter Naron and Trenston Harvey each led DHS with two hits apiece, as the Warriors out-hit the Admirals 9-4.

Meanwhile, in Ocean Springs, the league-leading Admirals moved to 16-0 in the region race with an 11-1 win in just five frames over second place St. Martin.
The Yellow Jackets, who have the second seed sowed up, fall to 11-5 in the loop.
Patterson Gilfoil went the game-shortened distance on the mound to earn the win for OSHS, scattering two hits and striking out seven.
Tristan Fox smacked a grand slam in the bottom of the fourth for the Greyhounds to seeal the deal.

Maddox Russell had two hits and drove in two runs for OSHS, while both Justin San Miguel and Victor Rojas each had two hits apiece in the winning effort.

Both series resume on Friday night, and then conclude on Saturday afternoon.

The Class 7A South State playoffs begin late next week.
