That Beckville team is tough.   WS did good taking them 7 innings.

They were a buzz saw tonight let me tell you.... Still we could've played much better. Two early errors in the first and second gave them 4 or 5 unearned runs....

Evadale did the same thing when they played.  Pulling for West Sabine.   Play hard boys!

Thanks bro, we are gonna need it! We got a secret weapon Beckville doesn't know of, though. They've only seen four of our five pitchers throw this year. The one they haven't seen has electric stuff and when he on he's untouchable. You all probably seen him when we played in y'alls tournament.

The Bearcats will look forward to the challenge.  West Sabine has seen only one of our nine pitchers last night.  There is very little drop off from him.  Hope the rain stays away.

I hope he's on (I didn't get to see y'alls game here).  I've been keeping an eye on Beckville, and from what I've read, they don't get many strikeouts.  Always making contact.   Again, I'm pulling for y'all!

With all do respect to West Sabine...there is a reason the only loss Beckville has this year is when they had to send their JV to a district game in order to still get to play at Minute Maid. They are very, very good. They've beaten 4As and below, all comers. They've only scored less than double digits 6 times this year, and 3 of those were tournament games on a time limit. Are they beatable? Absolutely, any high school team is. But there might not be a more complete baseball team in 2A. And for whoever said West Sabine made some errors that allowed some runs. Well that is what happens when the ball is put in play just about every at bat. It takes a great defensive effort from all nine positions to beat a team like Beckville. 

 

And if your "ace in the hole" is who I think it is...that makes you that much more prone to defensive mistakes when he pitches.

It is and you are right that is the one drawback, Tigerheart. Gotta go out with all guns blazin now. He is the only one of our pitchers whom Beckville hasn't seen yet, so there's that element. And he does have nasty stuff when he's right....
