The Brownwood Lions shaved a six-run deficit to one, but the Stephenville Yellow Jackets fired back with the final six runs of the game for a 15-8 victory in the District 6-4A baseball finale for both teams Monday at Howard Payne University’s Don Shepard Park.
District 6-4A champion Stephenville (8-8, 11-1) scored in every inning but one, including two runs in the sixth and fourth in the seventh after Brownwood (10-11, 6-6) had closed the gap to 9-8.
The Lions used five pitchers – Xadrian Mares, Hunter Day, Byron Foster, Atticus Porter and Gavin Brandstetter – who yielded 16 hits, issued seven walks, beaned three batters and hurled four wild pitches. Brownwood’s defense committed four errors as the Lions gave up just seven earned runs.
