Franklin 10 Orangefield 0 final in 6... Franklin pitcher throws a no hitter
Congratulations to you guys. Good luck next week. I gotta hand it to you, yall do have awesome pitching. Wish we had played cleaner baseball and made the last 2 games more competitive, but no doubt the best team won.

I stand by my statement.... 12 hits to 6.... they played very uncharacteristic. Walks is what kept Orangefield in the game not hits.
Come on dude, don’t take anything away from the kids on the field. If you want to talk uncharacteristic, we made what 3 or 4 errors in game one. Y’all had 2 EARNED runs. Defense is normally our strong suit. Your ace didn’t strike out a single one of our kids. Like I said also, you did not out hit us in game 1. Hell you barley out hit us in game 2. We had all the uncharacteristic walks. Josh pitched a hell of a game is what made that game what it was.

Like I said wondering were these umps are from...
The same umps took a run off the board from Orangefield saying he didn’t touch 3rd. Wouldn’t say they were one sided. I didn’t see the video, but several people saw a video where he clearly touched 3rd. If that’s the case, it just gave us back the run they took. Not to mention that killed the inning as well with runners still in scoring position. Also not sure where you are getting that Franklin had 12 hits or out hit Orangefield game 1… out game changer has it at 8 hits for Orangefield to 7 hits for Franklin and Franklin’s game changer has it at 8 and 8.

But it's not a stretch... we have 7 that could go 7 innings. Not saying that it will happen but no reason to lie about it either. We have some great pitching on this team and have had 7 or more go 7 innings this season.
Well the point was I doubt all 7 of them could shut down Orangefield for 7 innings. But that is something we will never know. Good thing there are only 2-3 games.

I guess you will see... one thing we are not short in is pitching
I don’t think anyone thinks y’all are short on pitching. But 7 pitchers that can go 7 innings in the Regional Finals is a bit of a stretch I would think. I think that’s why he made the joke. Let’s just hope that this weather allows us to play a normal baseball game and not fight through mutiple rain delays every night.

Why would they be the favorites?
I think Franklin would be the considered the favorite based off ranking and record. I think most would agree we prefer being the underdogs anyway. Orangefield has played much better since getting everyone back however, and I think it should be a good matchup. It will be a fun series, with a chance to go to state on the line!

Some things to watch for the 2nd round:
Buna is starting to get hot. They will not go 4-3 the 2nd half.
Will Hardin pull their usual 2nd half meltdown?
Will Kountze be more consistent in the 2nd half?
Can Anahuac and Kirbyville stay the course? Can Anahuac get hot as they did the 2nd half last year.
Warren played alot of close games, they may play spoiler.
EC still has a long way to go to be competitive.
I definitely think Warren has underachieved. I think they are much better than their record indicates. I wouldn’t be surprised if they beat anyone besides Orangefield.

Understood. Not from there and not pulling for them. I believe them to be the best team in 3A (probably 4A also in the Region) since the beginning of the year. Never seen anything "classless" from their fanbase.
Guess you were wrong about that. Got their “beat down” this week as you call it…

If you were at the games this weekend and didn’t see anything classless then you yourself may be. There are no hard feelings from Orangefield from losing. CH is without a doubt the better team after watching the 2 games. If you need a description of classlessness, taunting the other team, mocking and degrading them, anything other than yelling to root for your team is uncalled for. Orangefield yelled all season FOR their kids, but never once yelled at opposing players. We have knocked other teams pitchers off them mound and we clapped them all the way to their dugout. Which is just decent and having good sportsmanship. CH would yell degrading things at the opposing pitchers as they were leaving the mound. This happened Thursday and today from CH spectators, from CH players and even some questionable things from the coaching staff. Winning with class would be kicking our butts, which they did, without taunting, mocking or anything else. That without a doubt did not happen. Regardless of what you have “seen” from them.

Hard to compare scores from some of those matchups… some could’ve been tournament play where a team runs out their 4th pitching option or vice versa
This is true. But you have to start somewhere for comparisons. Most of these common opponents were on the same weekend in the same tournament. OF was 4-0 out scoring opponents 34-5. While Central Heights was 2-2 out scoring opponents 13-11. Playing 3 like opponents in 4 games. I do agree that comparing opponents means next to nothing. Kids could be in basketball still, pitchers were different, etc. But like I said, it’s the only thing we have to go by until we see them on the field against each other Thursday night.

Central Heights will take it in 3 games. OF doesn't have the pitching to beat CH in a 3 game series.
Interesting take. Orangefield has beaten Carthage, Tatum and Buna just to name a few with someone other than their #1. All 3 of which are pretty solid teams, and 2 of them are still playing. So I guess we will see.

What is everyone’s thoughts on the series?

What game/series were there ejections?
I’m not sure. I’m just responding in general to a kid cussing an official being ejected.

Seeing a few comments regarding players being ejected.
Honest question !!!!!
Should an umpire allow a HS Athlete to direct profanity towards him?
IMO, it should not be tolerated at all. HS students directing profane language towards an adult is unacceptable in my book.
I 100% agree! It’s a game, kids need to learn how to respect authority, last game of his life or not. Cuss your boss at work, you most likely aren’t getting a warning. This is on the parent of their kid gets ejected. I can assure you if I cuss an official, they wouldn’t have had to suspend me. My dad would have dragged me off by the ear and would not have allowed me to play the next game regardless. Life lessons are much bigger than a game.
