The Jackets, now holding a record of 15-7 and 3-5 in District 8-5A, demonstrated resilience with a late-game surge, scoring six runs in the final two innings. This win is particularly vital as they prepare for two upcoming games against the Everman Bulldogs, currently sitting fourth in the district. The game began with a quick lead for Cleburne, thanks to a sacrifice fly from Beaux Douthitt. Pitcher Carter Howe delivered a strong performance, going 4.1 innings with one earned run and six strikeouts. However, the Wolves rallied in the fifth inning, scoring three runs before Cleburne regained control. The Jackets capitalized on a series of timely hits and errors, including a crucial RBI double from Zander Ballenger. Despite a late push from Timberview, Cleburne held on to secure the win, with the final out coming on a foul tip caught by Ballenger. This victory sets the stage for a critical matchup against Everman, where wins could secure Cleburne a playoff berth.
