The East Central University baseball team liked edging Great American Conference foe Harding 7-6 so much that the Tigers did it twice Saturday at Ken Turner Field.
ECU walked off the opener 7-6 in a nine-inning thriller before holding off the Bisons by the same score in the nightcap to secure the key GAC series victory.
