During the fat lady warming up in the back she choked on a donut.... so don't count them Tigers out just yet.... They are going to win 2 in a row to get to Austin.....

Silsbee was in control when I left, in the 5th inning I think.  Diboll's baseball team may be a team of destiny this year.  From what I've heard and even seen a bit, they have an uncanny way of fighting back and overcoming the odds.  That's the sign of a mentally tough team.  Silsbee's good, very good.  If they can take two straight from Diboll-well, I don't know.  Silsbee defintely got their work cut out for them.

IMO Silsbee wins game 2 and wins game 3. It sounded like Powell got a little tired. Can he pitch again on Saturday or Sunday? I expect those Tigers bats to get HOT this weekend. Silsbee is a team of destiney!!!!! Go Tigers!

Powell threw 95 pitches so I would think he could give a little more if needed.... depending on how he feels.  Only a double header left for Sat. no Sun games.

Too much went wrong in bottom of 6th....

Hit
Walk
Balk called
Error at third ( should have ended inning IMO) if made....
Missed interference call on batter along with another error at third
Home run was legit, if it would have gotten to him at all.

Too much to ask for one thing not to happen. 

All that said....  have to hit and field the ball.  Period.

Diboll hung tough and capitalized.

Food for thought, DeJesus pitched against Hudson in the single game set in the regional quarters a few weeks ago, not Castillo. Diboll is tough with him on the mound (game 2). If it goes to a third game, it will probably be Johnny Wholestaff for both teams.

Silsbee can hit any of Dibolls pitchers, the team can hit; just couldn't get any luck Thursday game.. they just have to come out Saturday focused, play their game, and they will advance, if not then their season is over.

I'm no rules expert so correct me if I'm wrong but I thought a normal swing and follow through cannot be considered batter interference.  I wasn't at the game and I'm assuming the batter had to be deliberate in his actions to be called for interference.  But like I said, if he had a normal swing and follow through with no deliberate or intentional interference then the ump got it right by not calling it.

Another brilliant statement of the obvious. ::)

Just my opinion...

Not intended to demean outcome of Dibolls win.

Batter was out of box moving toward third when throw was made.  I will concede
That it was a judgement call.  Again, do not want to take away from win.

It was one point in a busy inning.

I thought it was a heck of a ballgame. All of Silsbee's runs were unearned, and came after Diboll made an error that should have ended the inning. I thought Powell pitched a great game, but the truth is his true success was early in the game when the Jacks chased many off speed pitches out of the strike zone. As the game progressed the Diboll hitters got more disciplined and begin to wait for the fast ball as the off speed was rarely thrown for strike. That is when they started having success. The Tigers are more than capable of winning two, just as Diboll is more than able to close it out, and head to Austin as well. It should be a heck of a game (or two) at Rice. I have said it from day one of the playoffs that Diboll's playoff experience with this group of seniors will make the difference. I think it did on Thursday, and will again on Saturday, but if it goes to the third game, anything can happen. It will be fun.

Silsbee out hit Diboll 7-5

Apparently it depends on who is keeping the scorebook.

I agree. But my numbers came from the official score keeper in the press box.
