[quote name="Hail_Mary" post="1222202" timestamp="1337024968"] IMO, Barbers Hill has the edge in this series.  We are stacked with pitching and hitting.  The bats were pretty silent in the second game against Magnolia and our pitching with some pretty amazing defense in the outfield, kept us in it as long as it took to get the winning run across the plate in the 12th inning.  Blake Bonnin pitched for what I am pretty sure was his first time on the mound this season and went five innings for us. Good luck to the boys in blue! [/quote] Blake was outstanding. Very impressive performance.
