Pirates upend Grapevine, 5-4, to advance to area playoff round

Posted

Brock Mueller's two-run double with two outs in the top of the sixth inning lifted the Granbury Pirates to a 5-4 triumph over Grapevine tonight (Friday, May 7) in Grapevine, as GHS eliminated the Mustangs with a 2-0 sweep of their best-of-three Class 5A bi-district baseball series. The Pirates, now 23-8, will advance to play the winner of the bi-district playoff between Saginaw and Mansfield Timberview in the area playoff round next week. Tyler Sudderth pitched the first six innings to earn the win, and Cameron Collins mowed down the side in the bottom of the seventh for a save.
