Too much to handle

by | May 17, 2018 | Sports

High-scoring innings from The Woodlands proved to be Sachse’s kryptonite.

The Highlanders won the first game 8-5 at Scotland Yard and closed things out with a 9-1 road win in a best-of-three Class 6A Region II area series.

In the opening game, Sachse struck first in the top of the fourth for a 2-0 lead.

Chase Alford and Mark Anzaldua reached on back-to-back singles.

Tye Fairley drove them both in on a single.

In the bottom half of the same inning, the Highlanders got a two-run homerun.

The lead grew to 7-2 on an RBI single, sacrifice fly, passed ball and a two-run single.

The Highlanders scored one final time on a single for a six-run advantage.

The Woodlands would end up sending 12 batters to the plate.
