Must be playing good baseball right now.

Kudos to Coach Thompkins and the Rocks!

The door is wide open this year!

Not sure who was behind the dish? But I think a couple of the double plays came with runners on 1st and 2nd with 1 out? When they needed a double play it seemed to happen.

McCombs pitched the district final 5/21 came back 3 days later pitched regional opener 5/25. Will only have 2 days rest for regional final. That's alot of pitches in a weeks time for someone that hasn't pitched that much this year. Right on Park1221 with a kid that has a career and future.

Good game. Good hitting and 4 huge double plays. Trinity turned double plays in the first 3 innings and of course a double play to end the game. When a team turns 4 double plays in 7 innings that's a hard one to beat. Littrel started 2 of the double plays with the other 2 being turned up the middle. Pitchers best friend.

It would be hard to save your ace if it's one and done.

This year it's so wide open. You play to win one game at a time. If you save your #1 and find yourself in a hole early it could be to late and there is no tomorrow.

Who will pitch tonight Littrel/Reuff and Doering/Pearcy?

In the late 80's the regional winners played in a 4 team semi-state tournament. The winners of the semi-state tournaments played in what was called the Final 4. So the state tournament was a 4 team single elimanation tournament.

Throw the polls out the window because it's wide open this year!

PRP 6 ST X 5 in 8 innings

ST X plays PRP tonight @ 7:30 @ ST X

There are probably a handful of .400 and .500 hitters in highschool. That is why it is important that no one is on base when these hitters come to bat. Lets say a team gets 9 hits in a seven inning game. That would make them 9-30 in seven innings. Do the math? Team batting average .300

Park 1221, throwing offspeed when you're ahead 0-2 or 1-2 can be effective if you locate your pitches. How did you get to 0-2 or 1-2? Was it with fastballs or offspeed? Maybe fastballs are all that you need especially if it has movement and you can locate up/down/in or out and hit your spots. Then again you said they throw first pitch fastballs 90% of the time. Of that 90% what is the % of first pitch strikes and getting ahead of the hitters? Remember in baseball good hitters make outs 7 out of 10 times.
