Scots, Rangers Split One-Run Contests
Highland Park and Jesuit Dallas split their two-game baseball series during the holiday weekend, which might be appropriate for two teams in solid playoff position in a competitive District 7-6A.
The rivalry series began with a 3-2 Jesuit victory on Thursday and concluded with HP taking the rematch 2-1 on Saturday. Both teams won on their home field.
The Rangers (21-3, 5-3) remained unbeaten at home thanks to a two-run rally in the sixth inning. Dillon Brandt threw a complete game and Braxton Barber tallied three hits.
The Scots (9-10, 5-1) bounced back in another pitching duel, with extra-base hits coming from Anderson Curtis, Matty Chan, and Carter Flashnick. Charlie Kinkaid earned the victory on the mound.
Next up, HP will face Richardson Berkner in a two-game series beginning on Tuesday at home. Jesuit has a bye in the league schedule and will host Sachse in a nondistrict game on April 5.
