ORANGEFIELD — With sole possession of second place in 21-3A on the line the Hamshire-Fannett Longhorns continued to crush the ball and put together a huge fourth inning helped out by a Bobcat error with 2 outs to get a huge 10-6 victory over the Orangefield Bobcats.

With 2 outs and the Bobcats leading 2-1 in the top of the fourth Jake Minaldi hit a ground ball to Bobcat second baseman Jonathan Deramus but the throw to first was off target resulting in a run scoring for the Longhorns. Hamshire-Fannett then ripped off four straight hits and 5 more runs touched home plate in the inning to give the Horns a 7-2 lead that they would not relinquish.

The Longhorns got on the board quickly in the top of the first inning when Jeremy Pinder homered to put H-F up 1-0. The Bobcats answered in the bottom of the second when Derrick Evans doubled to score Quinton Evans and Kyle Fontenot giving Orangefield a 2-1 lead.

Orangefield (16-8, 3-3) responded to the big Longhorn fourth by scoring 2 runs in the bottom of the fifth. Jace Statum led off with a walk and Deramus followed with a RBI double to score Statum. Deramus would later score on a Chase Angelle RBI double to make the score 7-4 Longhorns.

Hamshire-Fannett (16-4, 4-2) would pull away again though in the top of the sixth. After a Pinder single to lead off the inning Taylor Eaves would double to plate Pinder. Pinder would later score on a Lalonde RBI single and padding the Longhorn lead to 9-4.

With the score 10-4 Orangefield made a run at a comeback in the bottom of the seventh. Deramus singled to lead off the inning and after a Jacob Felts strikeout, Angelle would walk to put runners on first and second with 1 out. Zach Peevey then singled to load the bases. Quinton Evans then picked up a RBI single that scored Deramus to make the score 10-5 H-F. Fontenot then hit a sac fly to center field that scored Angelle to make the score 10-6 with 2 outs. Josh Watson then walked to load the bases but Derrick Evans would then ground out to end the threat and ball game.

Hamshire-Fannett finished the game with 14 hits while Orangefield had 11. Orangefield will hit the road Monday to Sour Lake to take on the Hardin-Jefferson Hawks while Hamshire-Fannett travels to West Orange-Stark.
