The Wildcats earned their third district win of the season and put them right back in contention for a playoff spot.
@ Shiner, L, 11-1
The Wildcats started their week by traveling to Shiner to take on their district rivals on Tuesday, March 26.
They started the game out strong earning the first run of the game in the top fo the first inning to set the tone. They received great pitching a stellar defensive play while out in the field for the first four innings but then Shiner opened the gates offensively.
Shiner tied the game in the bottom of the third inning and scored four runs in the bottom of the fourth. They followed that up with a six-run inning in the fifth inning and then the game was called.
The wheels fell off for the Wildcats as the game went on and Shiner heated up in the batter’s box. It’s a tough game to lose to any team but to lose that way to a district team meant a little more to the Wildcats and they showed it in their next game.
