- what we knew at the end of the- high school baseball- regular season... st.

Martin wa- the best team, from region 7- class 6-a... biloxi... the best- from region 8.- what we know now... they're the- best two teams, in all of south- mississippi.- so no matter how this ends... - one team from the gulf coast...- is heading to the 6-a state - championship series.- indians hosting the - yellowjackets in game 1, of - south - state... and these student- sections giving this more of a- friday night- lights type feel.

- st.

Martin coming to play right- out of the gates... as r-j- fletcher rips - a single into left... but it- turns into so much more than- that... costly error by gavin - dick... and look at the wheels- on- leo harris... the u-a-b signee- only needing 12 steps from thir- to- home... visitors take an early- 1- nothing lead.- next up, brennan study gets a - piece of one... and it's a big- piece... that ball somewhere up- there just cloud surfing... jus- shy of the wall out there, in - deep center... fletcher doing - the safe thing and holding up..- so that's two hits... and two - runs scored, for st.

Martin...- making an early statement, in - the - top of the first.

- how would biloxi respond... nic- skaggs getting one right back,- in- the bottom half... he's a gamer- man... off the third- baseman's glove... as the - lead-off man conner platt - rounds third and heads for- home... jackets up 2-1 after- one.- and they just keep coming...- fletcher stings another one to- right field, here in the third- inning... harris the early un-- sung hero, for walking in his - first two at-bats... the future- blazer safe at third, on the- head-first slide... st.

Martin- in- business again.

- and just when you thought big - red was starting to settle in..- another error, on the throw to- first... harris scores anyway..- but now fletcher is coming home- too... skaggs - just can't catch a break, on th- mound... yellowjackets- go up 4-1... and looking for- more.

- but the indians would show some- resolve, to get out of the- jam... arizona state commit col- keith manning the hot - corner... steps on third for- one... and then throws over to- first, for the 5-3 double - play... inning over.- but would it even matter... lei- moore absolutely- dominant, in game 1... the- p-r-c-c signee dealing out some- may - mayhem, here in the post-season- absolutely astonishing this kid- hasn't gotten more division i - looks... and here's why i say - that.

- - complete game... six- strikeouts... and of course, th- win... as the - yellowjackets take game 1 by th- final count, of 5-1... and let'- put this in context... st.- - - - martin holding the opposition t- one run... the very next game - after the indians put up 18 - runs, - against brandon.- game
