It should be a good series.

LH is playing some good baseball lately. they started the season slow....3-7 and have sence imporved to 16-10.

We have beaten several top 20 teams along the way: Bandera, Rockdale, Cameron, Hutto, Taylor, and beat McCallum a 4A team that had a 18 game win streak and were ranked #2 in Cen-Tex.

What does Diboll have to offer?

Diboll shut out by Liberty Hill

By RAYMOND LINEX II

Friday, May 09, 2008

For Diboll's first playoff run in 11 years to continue, the Lumberjacks will have to come from behind. A little offense might help.

The Lumberjacks were held to four hits in a 5-0 loss to Liberty Hill Thursday in Game 1 of a Region III-3A area tilt at James G. Price Field.

Game 2 is 7 p.m. tonight at the same venue.

It was a pitcher's duel through five, but the Panthers (17-10) collected seven hits and all five runs in the final two innings, while their ace — Ty Moore — struck out 10 and never allowed the Lumberjacks (19-7) to mount a serious threat.

Diboll starter Cutler Ruby went 6 2/3 innings and got himself out of a first-inning jam when Liberty Hill's Jake Ott led off with a sinking base hit to left field that Jose Solis couldn't corral while sliding, and Ryan Cox singled on what was a sacrifice bunt attempt he beat out.

A pop-up, caught stealing and a brilliant pick-off move to first kept the Panthers off the board, and Ruby allowed only one more hit over the next four innings.

"Cutler threw well, but he was getting the ball up a little bit and got a little tired and frustrated toward the end," Diboll coach Terry Johnson said. "They strung some hits together and hit with people in scoring position."

Liberty Hill's first three batters did the damage in the final two innings. Incidentally, Ruby's pickoff move may have led to some of his fatigue.

Ott singled for the second time to leadoff the sixth for Liberty Hill, and Ruby went to first base four times before delivering a single pitch to Cox, who ended the night 4 for 4. Cox fashioned a seven-pitch at bat around seven moves to first, and eventually hit a lazy fly to shallow left field that fell for a single.

First baseman Cody Lattimore followed with single under diving third baseman Robert Cedillo's glove, and the Panthers took a 1-0 lead. Ruby got a strikeout and a groundout before shortstop Cade Moore singled to right to score two more and make it 3-0.

In the sixth, Ott's fielder's choice left him at first and the Panthers with two outs. But Cox followed with an RBI single, and Lattimore an RBI double.

The Panthers were 3 for 8 with runners in scoring position, 3 for 5 in the final two innings.

Diboll, meanwhile, was 0 for 7, and had five opportunities in the first three innings, three in the second after Ruby led off with a double to the gap in left-center. Kyle Prescott doubled with two outs in the first, and Ketarus Stanton tripled with two outs in the third, but both innings ended when Moore induced groundouts to third.

In the second, Cox made a difficult catch running away from his spot at second toward center field with one out, robbing designated hitter Faustino Salais of a possible RBI single.

Moore retired the side in the fourth, fifth and seventh innings.

After the game, Johnson emphasized the significance of a best-of-three series with his team.

"I named about 10 teams that came back after losing the first one to win the last two," he said. "That's the reason they play two out of three."

Don't even know why they scheduled a tenative game 3 for this series, the Panthers will obviously win it with two shutouts. But if Diboll scores even one "UNEARNED RUN", this statement is:lies:

Probably having a hard time coming to grips with the reality that in a couple of weeks your high school days will be gone, or you just haven't been able to let go.:D
