Usually, a strong hurricane can overpower any marine mammal, including dolphins.
That wasn't the case Saturday.
The Dolphin baseball team got three hits and six RBIs from Kameron Brunty, including a grand slam, as they hammered the Flomaton Hurricanes 15-3 Saturday at Hurricane Park in Flomaton. The win was the second of the day for Gulf Breeze (3-0), who beat East Brewton's W.S. Neal 18-3 in a five-inning win earlier that day.
Dolphins 15, Flomaton 3 (five innings)
Gulf Breeze scored five in the second and eight in the third, which included a two-run homer by Bo Dobson, as they rolled to an easy win.
Patrick Vance, who went 3-for-4 and scored three times, hit an RBI double in Gulf Breeze's five-run second inning.
Spencer Wiley hit an RBI single in the Dolphins' eight-run third before Brunty's grand slam. Brunty hit a two-run single in the second inning.
Dobson, who went 2-for-2 with three RBIs, added an RBI single in the fourth, while T.J. Jordan, who went 2-for-2 and scored three times, added a sac fly in the fifth.
