The first inning started out slowly with no runs for either side. In the bottom of the 2nd the Eagles scored the first runs of the game with a great RBI triple by #11 Kevin Chisum who brought in three runs. An RBI single by RJ Ruiz brought in Chisum followed by a walk and an RBI double by Diego Gaona gave the Eagles a 6-0 lead over the Rams after two innings of play. The 3rd inning had 3 up and 3 down for the Rams followed up by a run for the Eagles despite a nice double play for the boys in blue. In the 4th inning the Rams caught a lucky break and scored their first run on an RBI single. They scored again in the top of the 5th but the Eagles returned it with two runs of their own. The score was 8-2 going into the top of the 6th. Yet again the Rams closed the gap with a nice RBI double along the right field foul line that brought in two runs for the Rams and yet again the Eagles returned fire with another run of their own with a nice hit to center field by #21 Armando Lopez bringing the score up to 9-4 for the Eagles. In the last inning of play Del Rio scored 2 more runs before they were stopped with a nice catch for the Eagles’ shortstop #3 RJ Ruiz to win the game 9-6.

The Eagles, now 8-2, have one final game against the CC Winn Mavericks on Friday April 25th. They are currently in 2nd place in 29-5A District standings.
