Forney vs. Waco Midway

I give the edge to Midway -- and Duncanville makes sense to me.

As I understand it from my son:

Thursday 7:30 PM at Waco Midway

Friday 7:30 PM at Forney

Saturday at Duncanville if needed, don't remember the time. Probably 1:00 PM.

Dang, I was hoping Forney on Thursday. Looks like I will be going to Waco thursday, then back down again to austin going out of town friday.

I've heard Forney has at least two good arms..one lefty and one righty? What about the sticks?

Bats have come through in the clutch the last 2 series. Down 6-3 against against Nacogdoches, they scored 4 runs in the bottom of the 7th to win. Against Poteet down 4-0 rallied to win.

Mizzoudad -- Tigers roll!

mizzoudad,

I met you at Grapevine. Congrats on your team's success. I'm not surprised to see you all still playing at this late date after seeing you play. Forney can swing it a bit and they have three very good senior pitchers. Still, they're a 3rd place team in the regular season, so you all have to be the favorites. I imagine it'll be a good series (that's deep, huh?)

The if necessary game at Duncanville is at 4:00.

Panther Dad -- Mizzou sweeps Nebraska ok, now you have to get a new screen name! I am thinking something with a Tiger in it....Eye of the Tigerf??

Coach T, I certainly remember. We all know anything can happen and Forney sounds very deserving of their place. Sounds like lefty, righty, righty. Looking forward to a good series.

Pantherdad, is there something you and mizzoudad need to confess???

kirk -- Mizzoudad and I have a lot in common -- we will both enjoy watching the Tigers pound the Huskers for years to come.

I feel like I am being ganged up on. PD, watch your lips Sunday.

If anyone is interested all three games will be broadcast on www.sportsgram.net. That's helpful for us Forney fans in the Austin area since it's a long drive to the games.

I listened to the Forney game last week vs Poteet on sportsgram it was great. Great broadcasting.

Game 1

Midway 4
Forney 1

Game 2
Final

Waco 7
Forney 10

Line Score of Game 2 (I'm pretty sure, it's off my memory):

Waco 221 000 2
Forney 101 701 x

Forney had their backs against the wall again, down 5-1 after 2 1/2 innings. Woodruff started for Forney and didn't get through the first inning. Blackmon pitched the rest of the way. Midway threw 4 different pitchers in the 4th inning. Tomorrow's game at Duncanville is at 4:00.

Woodruff reportedly came down with an arm problem.

Congrats to Waco Midway for their convincing win. It was a run-rule in 5 innings, 17-5, I think. Woodruff DH'd due to a sore elbow and Forney didn't have the pitching to keep up. At least not with Midway, who crushed the ball all day. Forney hit the ball well, too, but didn't get the two out hits they needed to keep the game close. Great season for both teams, and Midway/Wax will be a great regional final.
