Saturday is the 25th, I do believe the original post had the 24th. The game is Saturday. Let’s go ‘Jackets!!

Don’t they have a two-time state winning head coach on staff? Young man that won state back to back, then moved from the small East Texas town to the bubble for a big pay raise as an assistant.

Per THSB: W20 Neches vs R24 Chester Game 1: Saturday May 24 at 7pm at Rusk Game 2: Tuesday May 28 at 6pm at Hudson Game 3: If needed Wednesday May 29 at 6pm at Hudson Let’s go Yellowjackets!!!!

Neches takes game 3 by a score of 14-6. Neches vs Chester, time(s), dates and location TBA.

Neches up over Gilmer Union Hill 7-4 in the top of the 7th. This is game 3 of the series between these two. The winner will take on THE Chester Yellowjackets in the regional finals/state quarterfinals.

Man I’ve watched more games this year than I have my combined life - 3 total. What I have found in my time watching is: 1) Attitudes abound. The posturing, the looks, the demeanor is very unappealing. 2) The game is not that good. There are a lot of missed lay-ups, standing around, flopping. It’s just really not that fun to watch. That's just my two cents worth. I used to love to watch basketball, but having a hard time connecting nowadays.

Man - Liberty has a machine going on over in Panther Land. They have been a consistent team for several years. Let’s go Liberty……win it all.

1A is a game ahead because of fewer teams. The next round for Chester is the regional finals.

You know, as happy as I am for our boys, you have the other side of the coin. Even though it was a long time ago, you never forget your last game. We lost 4-2 in the regional finals to district foe Colmesneil. They went on to run rule the semis and the ‘ship. Brookeland had a great season and their community should be proud of their boys. There was some chippyness that tarnished the game, but you’ll get that when you have competitive kids. Hats off to Brookeland. Super proud of the Chester community too as we filled our side up. Hoping the next game we can travel like we did today. Long night and still - what a game.

Bases loaded, 1 out, pitch to the plate and clear single to CF and the lights go off. Lights go out clearly after the single. What’s the call?

I wish more parents would post game updates. Back in the day when my boy was pitching for Evadale I would post like this just to keep myself calm.

K looking for out 1. HBP on a 1-2 count. Fielders Choice 4-3, runner advances to 2nd. Line out to Short-Stop. Chester Advances!!!!!!!!! Hell yea, let’s go Yellowjackets!!!!!!!!

New pitcher for Chester, come on - pitch to contact and for outs.

Brookeland coming to the plate with 1-2-3.

The lights went off after the hit.

Lights come back on and they put him back in the box. Infield fly for out 2. Finally called a balk, run scored. Not coming set - all game. Chester strands 2 but takes a 13-11 lead. Take 2, 3 outs to go!!!!

Get this - Chester gets a base hit to CF, for sure scoring 1 and maybe 2……..but the lights go out. It was after the hit - how do you score that?

Base hit for Chester scores 1. We still have bases loaded with 1 out. Chester up 12-11.

6-4 will keep us tied, Free baseball as we are going into the 8th.

Fielders Choice 6-4 gets the second out, but they tie it up at 11.

Pop-up to catcher for 1st out. Rare in 1A, but a double play ends it here.

Single scores a run 11-10 Nobody out.

HBP scores a run, 11-9 Nobody out

No outs - not how we wanted this inning to start. New pitcher for the Yellowjackets.

HBP for the lead off. BB for batter 2. HBP loads the bases.
