"Oh say, can you see ..."

Eagles set up in the visitor's dugout. Westlake High School is in the Eanes Independent School District, and the baseball field is located on land that used to be part of Camp Craft, a Boy Scout camp.

Eagle head coach Steve Velasquez warms up his infield before the game at Westlake's Woerner Field.

Just a few of the Eagle Faithful.

Umps and coaches review the ground rules.

Westlake's Brad Higginbotham runs through 1st base, but was out on a throw from Eagle 3rd baseman Daniel Fabian (not pictured here) to 1st baseman Richard Rogalewski (with his foot on the bag). Westlake coach Jim Darilek looks on.

Down by just 2 runs, the Eagles huddle on the sideline before the top of the 3rd inning

Three Westlake runs scored in the 2nd, but Salinas came back to strike out the final 2 batters of the inning.

Eagle 1st baseman Richard Rogalewski takes a strike in the 3rd inning.

Eagle outfielder Daniel Leal.

Shortstop Jason Rangel sent a base hit to left field to start a 2-out mini-rally in the top of the 3rd.

Eagle DH Matt Hohertz keeps the rally alive with this single in the top of the 3rd. Both Rangel and Hohertz would score.

Eagle outfielder Martinez had a 9-pitch at bat that culminated in a base on balls that loaded the bags.

Bases loaded, 2 outs and a count of 3 and 2 on Eagle batter Charles Morton. Of course the runners are going! In fact, here comes Rangel RIGHT NOW!! Morton fouled off this pitch, one of 10 in this at bat, but he eventually walked, forcing a run across the plate for the Eagles.

Eagle fans erupt in spasms of wild and spontaneous cheering at the 2 runs!

Fabian takes a lead at 1st.

Eagle 3rd baseman Daniel Fabian draws a base on balls, too. Not only does that put another Eagle run on the scoreboard, it counts as an RBI.
