That is true. A team can have the game going they're way and all of a sudden they commit an error or a man gets on base. Momentum shifts and it's a whole new ballgame.Quote:

another silent killer....
stephenville was 0-16 with runners in scoring position in their series vs argyle - they stranded 7 or 8 in each game
Oof. Yeah, that stings. Just can't afford to go cold this time of year.Quote:

Bobcats also have Caden Mitchell (Illinois commit) who can absolutely rake. Apart from those big names, Celina is really just full of good high school baseball players. Fundamentally sound at the plate and on defense. Bobcats have consistently found ways to win all season long, either by grinding out at-bats and extending innings, or by utilizing the longball with a powerful lineup.
Sinton will undoubtedly be the best team Celina has faced, and I imagine whatever pitcher the Pirates throw will be the best one the Bobcats have seen all year, but Celina is not untested. The Bobcats have played a good schedule, so they shouldn't feel outmatched, no matter what the numbers say on paper.
Impetus for the Bobcats will be on throwing strikes, playing clean defense, and grinding it out at the plate. Offense will be tough to come by, so they'll need to find a way to manufacture runs and cash in with RISP. Celina cannot give Sinton any free passes or extra at-bats, because with that lineup, sooner or later, the Pirates will make you pay.
Go Celina Bobcats!Quote:
