Caleb Whitenton’s arm injury gave Starr’s Mill a brief glimmer of hope toward stealing a split with Gainesville. Chandler Newton and the Red Elephants’ bats quickly snuffed it out. Newton tossed 3 2/3 innings of scoreless relief in his first appearance on the mound in more than a month, and second-ranked Gainesville scored 10 unanswered runs to complete a sweep of Starr’s Mill with a 13-2 victory in five innings in Game 2 of the Class AAAAA state quarterfinal series on Tuesday at Ivey-Watson Field.
