Providence Christian’s offense picked it up Tuesday where it left off on Monday with an early outburst against rival Houston Academy.
While the Eagles cooled off after a four-run first inning, the pitching of Win Brock and Seth Clack made the early offense stand up for a 5-3 PCS win over the Raiders at the Providence Christian campus.
“We rode out the storm there early as they had a big first inning and they got one more ,” Houston Academy head coach tony Kirkland said. “We just waited too late in the game to start swinging the bat and make some action happen. Hey, we were just one or two hits away from tying things up late and playing on. I was proud of the effort our kids gave after they got down.”
“He pitched as well as he could,” Smith said. “He probably didn’t have the control that he has had at other times, but he battled and he gave us a chance to get to Seth. We are so happy to have him back as he didn’t play last year. He loves these situations where it is tense and he delivered.” Brock ripped a two-run single to right field to bring home both Stickler and Dykes and Brooks Canady roped a double past third base to score Mims for a 3-0 lead. Brock tried to score on a wild pitch, but was thrown out at the plate. CJ Sullivan then singled past third to score Canady to make it 4-0.
The Raider offense came to life at the same time. After failing to get a hit in the first three innings, HA earned three during a two-run fourth. After a walk to Brayden Eubanks to start the inning, J.T. Pitchford ripped a double in left-center and Eubanks came flying around from first base to score. Two batters later, Cam Dyer singled home Pitchford to cut the Eagle lead to 5-2.
