coppell junior (corrected from sr.) jacob morris returned to flower mound a calendar year due to uil ineligibility (moving from FM for athletic reasons)..
coppell wins 4-0 due to shoddy flower mound fielding, but it was coppell solid fielding, bunting and pressure that pressured FM into cracks
morris gets more than the usual razzing from about 800 at The Mound... but he's smiling and talking to catcher for his first at bat... it's walk but then Morris gets picked off first by lefty Brandon Parrent... deceptive move to first in that his move to home looks more like he's going to first...
In morris' second at bat.. he goes down on strikes..
3rd at bat grounds into fielder's choice..
a lot of pressure for a kid to return to his school first game back ..
biggest thing is that flower mound sure isn't bad but sure isn't what is has been.. FM could use a player like Morris...he's a donedeal DI kid, good size speed, body the pros might like.. if shoulder looks good and he has a big year with Tigers this summer could be a 3rd-5th rounder.. little stiff in his swing tonight but give him 100 at bats against live pitching...and then we'll see..
his pitching should really help coppell come playoffs..
