Comeback falls short at home

Posted by ileana Evans on Apr 17 2009 at 05:00PM PDT
Mission Hills scored 8 runs in the first 7 innings but the Mavs saved all their offense for the bottom of the 7th.  Hits by Tybroski and Evans set up an RBI single by Grant Jochem. After Will Swanner was hit by a pitch to load the bases, Garrett Hughes narrowed the lead to 8-5 with a massive grand slam down the line in right. Singles by Graeber and McNabb and a fielders choice by Kevin Hill were followed by an RBI double by Mitch Tybroski, that just kicked up chalk on the left field line. Down by 2 runs, with runners on 2nd and 3rd and Zach Gage at the plate with a full count, the Grizzly reliever appeared to balk in a run with a move to 3rd. Neither umpire made the call, however, and the pickoff at 3rd base ended the game in a storm of controversy, the Mavs down 8-6. Michael Swanner pitched 5 innings for La Costa, and got help from Cody Parks and Parker Johnson in the 6th and 7th.
