Klein ISD Tournament February 28-March 1, 2008

 

KHS vs. Klein Forest     Non-District Game

 

Doyle holds Klein Forrest scoreless, Tittle, Taska, McGinnis and D. Brown lead bat attack in 7-0 victory over Eagles.

 

Kingwood faced off against the host Klein Forest Eagles in the 4th game of the Klein ISD tournament and came away with a 7-0 win to improve their record to 8-3 for the season.  Junior Garrett Doyle started on the hill for the Mustangs and went 6 shut out innings, scattering 7 hits.  Doyle kept the Eagle batters off balance all night long, striking out 6 while walking one.  Austin Evitts came in for the 7th and retired the Eagles in order, adding another K.

 

The Mustangs pushed one run across in the 1st inning to go up early 1-0.  Cody Perkins put the Mustangs in scoring position when he doubled to left center.  Perkins tagged up to third on David Tittle’s fly ball to deep right and then scored on a wild pitch.  Kingwood added three more runs in the 2nd.  Conor McGinnis led off with a single to left and then stole second.  Alex Sowyrda joined McGinnis when he reached on an error followed by Eric Stover who worked a walk to load the bases and bring Dale Brown to plate.  .  Brown smacked a single to left that plated McGinnis and Sowyrda and moved Stover to third.  Jordan Raney then stroked a sac fly to deep center that brought home Stover to put the Mustangs up 4-0.

 

In the 3rd inning, Tittle doubled to lead off and advanced to 3rd on a fly to right by Geoff Perrot.  McGinnis then brought Tittle home with a sac fly to center.

 

Tittle added a single in the 5th but was left stranded.  The Mustangs then loaded the bases in the 6th with a lead off single to left by Taylor Taska, a Matt Brown walk, and a single to left by Stover, but again the runners were left stranded when the next two batters went down in order

 

In the 7th, the Mustangs put their final two runs on the board.  Zack McLellan and Tittle worked consecutive walks followed by Stanley Churchwell who singled to right to load the bases and bring Taska to the plate.  Taska worked the count full and then smacked a single to center that brought home McLellan and Tittle for the final two runs of the game. 

Contributing to the Mustang offense were David Tittle (2/3, Dbl, BB), Taylor Taska (2/2, 2RBI), Conor McGinnis (1/1, Sac, RBI), Eric Stover (1/2, BB), Dale Brown (1/2, 2RBI), Stanley Churchwell (1/2).
