Sims Griffith got the fireworks display started, and Brandon Sewell finished it off. Sewell hit a walk-off three-run home run to rally the second-ranked Gainesville baseball team to a 6-3 win over Apalachee in the Region 8-AAAAA opener Tuesday night at Ivey-Watson Field. Sewell’s blast over the left field fence capped a productive bottom of the seventh inning for the Red Elephants (6-1, 1-0 region), who trailed 3-2 with only three outs remaining in the game.
