Lufkin wins 3-2 with walk off over Nac to close out time at Morris Frank Park By Caleb Beames | April 27, 2021 at 10:41 PM CDT - Updated April 28 at 1:06 AM
LUFKIN, Texas (KTRE) - Morris Frank Park saw one last magical moment Tuesday night with the Lufkin Panthers winning 3-2 over Nacogdoches with a walk off single by Sam Flores.
“We got Colby DeJesus on base with two outs and tied at 2,” Lufkin head coach John Cobb said. “Sam took a pitch so we stole the base to get into scoring position. If he gets thrown out no big deal because Flores would lead off. When he stole the base, the ball got away so we got to third base. That was just a gamble because Sam leading off in extra innings would be a good thing. Sam got the barrel on the ball with a 2-0 count so it all worked out.”
