Over the last week and a half, the Lytle Pirate baseball team has picked up 3 exciting wins.
After a lightning delay that forced the team to return to Crystal City on Wednesday, April 5, 2023, the offense exploded for an 8-run 2nd inning. This proved to be the difference. There was good pitching from Colin Wood, Roland Cordova and Toby Davila. The team scored 13 runs on 10 hits. Highlights include Toby Davila 3 for 5, Jair Flores 2 for 5, and every starter had at least 1 hit and 1 run scored.
The very next day, April 6, under uncertain weather conditions, we hosted Natalia at home. The Pirates scored 8 runs on 8 hits and took advantage of 6 Natalia errors. Devin Cordova, Jair Flores and Toby Davila supplied the pitching needed to secure the win.
Highlights included 8 different players having 1 hit and Colin Wood and Travis Norton both scoring 2 runs.
On Tuesday, April 11, 2023, the boys travelled to Cotulla. This game was full of offense by both groups. Cotulla jumped to a 4 - 2 lead in the 1st inning but it didn't last long.
