Bulldogs blast Eastland

EASTLAND - Wylie jumped on Eastland for seven runs in the top of the first inning en route to a 13-3 victory over the Mavericks in a District 6-3A baseball game Friday.

"The first inning was the story of the game," Wylie coach Clay Martin said.

Marc Deffenbaugh led off with single. Jacob Pruitt reached on an error, and then Eastland pitchers walked four straight batters to force in three runs.

Scott followed with a two-run double, Greg McMinn hit a RBI single, and Deffenbaugh, batting for the second time in the inning, doubled to drive in final run of the inning.

The game was called on the 10-run rule after five innings.

Deffenbaugh and McMinn each had two hits for Wylie, which is now 11-5 overall and 2-0 in district.

Jerrod Brown was the winning pitcher for the Bulldogs.
