District Game
“Mustangs fall to
With an opportunity to tie for first place in District 22-5A half way through district play Tuesday night, the Mustangs could not come up with a timely hit or make the routine play in the field when necessary and fell to Baytown Sterling by the score of 9 to 2 at Andy Wells Field.
Sterling started the scoring in the first inning with one run on only one hit and added five more runs in the second behind two Mustangs errors and a grand slam homerun by Sterling standout Chase Dempsay.
The Mustangs only scoring came with single runs in the first and second innings. Jordan Raney and Jordan Brewster led off the bottom of the first with back to back walks and David Tittle singled to load the bases. Brad Evans than walked to drive in the first Mustang run, but the inning stalled after a strikeout and a failed attempt to steal home.

The Mustangs relief pitching led by Michael Oros, Corey Grillet and Clint Stover kept Kingwood in the game as they combined to keep Sterling scoreless from the third through the sixth inning without giving up a base hit before they added three more runs in the seventh on two homeruns.
Kingwood is now 4-3 in district play and starts the second half of 22-5A play Thursday night at Baytown Lee.
