... bank off the scoreboard, bounce off a school bus - NOTHIN' BUT NET!

EARLY TROUBLE. Mustang shortstop Tyler Hicks (left) became a base runner as a result of a fielding error in center field. He advanced to 3rd on a throwing error by 3rd baseman Kevin Deleon (shown here at right). Then Hicks scored on a passed ball by the catcher. A run that should never have existed.

Eagle center fielder Airrik Martinez takes a cut at the ball during a 1st-inning at bat.

Righthander Salinas hurls the ball in the top of the 1st inning.

A 2nd-inning fielding error at 3rd base leaves Eagle 1st baseman Richard Rogalewski standing empty-handed as Mustang runner Parker Barry is safe. Barry should have been an out. Instead, he became a run.

Eagle catcher Morton gets low behind the plate as Marble Falls 2nd baseman Bill Hendrix grounds out in the top of the 2nd.

Martin Salinas on the mound in the top of the 2nd.

Morton takes one for the team and is awarded 1st base. The 4th-inning pitch hit his left arm and can be seen in this photo bouncing past his right knee.

Top of the 4th inning.

Matt Hohertz runs for Morton in the 4th and takes a lead at 1st.

Eagle 1st baseman Rogalewski swings and misses.

Eagle left fielder Jordan Treviño flips the ball to shortstop Rangel after making a routine catch for an out in the top of the 5th.

Martinez trots in from center field after having caught a fly for the 3rd out.

Bottom of the 5th. The scoreboard shows 4 Eagle errors and a score of 3 to 0 favoring the Eagles' opponent. Without a doubt, the one explains the other.

Running for Salinas, Brandon Stewart takes a lead at 3rd.

Prepared to sacrifice, Eagle 2nd baseman JD Hernandez delivers a bunt that moves the runners AND takes him safely to 1st base.

Eagle Head Coach Steve Velasquez watches as 3rd baseman Guerra strikes out in the bottom of the 5th.

Salinas appears poised to hit, but his patience yielded a walk on 4 straight balls.

Eagle outfielder Jordan Treviño drives a 5th-inning base hit to left field, bringing in the 2 runs that would prove to be the only Eagle scoring in the ballgame.

Martin Salinas is shown here in the 6th inning.

Airrik Marinez bats for the Eagles in the bottom of the 6th.

Eagle 2nd baseman JD Hernandez scores one of 2 runs on Treviño's hit.

Treviño stole 2nd and beats the tag at 3rd base after a glove error by the Mustang shortstop.

Among the Eagle Faithful.

Salinas hit safely in the bottom of the 7th inning.

Mound meeting in the top of the 7th.

Rangel swapped positions with Salinas and became the Eagles' 7th inning reliever.

Down 6-2 in the bottom of the final inning, the Eagles are kept alive by when Matt Hohertz drives a base hit to the gap in right-center field.

Morton sends the ball to right field for a 6th-inning opposite field base hit.

JD Hernandez.

Daniel Leal.

Jordan Treviño was the final batter of the contest. Hohertz and Salinas were left on base.

Postgame handshakes.

Do the math. When a team's defensive error count equals its hit production, the outcome is hardly ever positive. Five errors worked to sink the Eagles, and 5 hits were not enough to keep them afloat.

Treviño, Morton, Hohertz, Salinas and Hernandez each had 1 base hit.
