HELENA - There were a couple of worrisome moments for the Helena Senators in their opening game of the 25th-annual Keith Sell Tournament Thursday. 

The first came when Glacier scored two runs in the top of the first, grabbing an early 2-0 lead. The second came in the top of the seventh, as Helena led 6-3, but faced a bases-loaded jam.

Yet, at Kindrick Legion Field, in the first game of the storied baseball tourney, the Senators held on for a 6-3 win.

Eamon Burke, who pitched the last two innings, got the save thanks to a pair of scoreless innings and Tyler Tenney, who allowed three runs and four hits in five innings as the starter, got the win. 

Down by two runs early, the offense awoke in the bottom of the third thanks to an RBI double by Chase Nielsen. Ethan Keintz, who had a hit earlier in the inning and stole a base, also scored on a walk and it was 2-2 after three.
