The term walk-off can bring a great sense of enjoyment for one team, while it can be agonizing for another.The Warren County High School baseball team got the short end on Monday night as White County defeated the Pioneers in nine innings 8-7 when Logan Hicks hit a walk-off home run.Warren County and White County needed two extra innings to settle the battle between district rivals, but the Warriors got the last at-bat and it proved to be the difference. Hicks hit a solo home run off Spencer Pryor with two outs in the bottom of the ninth to drop the Pioneers to 1-6 in district play this season.Warren County came into the game in a battle with the Warriors for fourth place in District 6-AAA. Two wins in the series for the Pioneers would mean coach Joey Haston’s team would host the district tournament play-in game.It looked like the Pioneers were poised to pull off the feat when they opened the game with three runs. Logan Walker ignited the rally when he hit a triple to score Dylan Barnes.
