The Blackcats rolled past Dickinson Friday, sweeping the bi-district series at Brazoswood to face Barbers Hill in area playoffs.
Bay City won the double-header event 4-3 and 5-1 and kept the pitching arms rested on Saturday. The Cats will play Barbers Hill in a best-of-three series starting at 6 p.m. Thursday, May 8 at Manvel High School in Alvin.
They’ll play game two at 7 p.m. Friday, May 9 and, if needed, the third game is scheduled for 2 p.m. Saturday at the same location.
The Cats scored early and often in both games against Dickinson and gave up little ground in either game, but Bay City nearly gave it up in the first one.
Colby Hines tripled in the bottom of the second and came home on a passed ball with Chance Leissner at bat. Leissner dinked one to the shortstop and Zach Benson, with a big lead off third, headed home. Dickinson went for the play at the plate and Benson came in under catcher Robert Ruffins’ glove for a two-run lead.
In the top of the fourth, the Gators tied it. A leadoff single from Christopher Myers had a leadoff single followed by a hit batter and a double to the centerfield fence from Sencion Barajaz plated a run and Barajaz came in on a passed ball before BC starter Travis Tomek fanned a batter and the Cats turned a double play to turn over the side.
Bay City loaded the bags in the fifth off a couple walks and a base hit from Derek Montgomery, who came home on a fielding error.
The Blackats gave up a tying run in the top of the seventh. Austin Ardrey single in the first base gap then a throwing error on Ruffins’ bunt put runners on second and third. Logan Cary burned one up to left field for an RBI.
BC got the second out at home on a chopper to third that Chad Barrett snagged and fired to Leissner behind the plate. With Cary on third, the catcher lobbed over the pitcher’s head back to the mound and shortstop Zach Benson was waiting on it. He scooped it on the run and hurled it back to Leissner, who tagged Cary in the baseline for the third out.
Dickinson pitcher Cody Herrell walked the first batter in the bottom of the seventh and hit the next one. D.J. Dominguez bunted to advance the runners and Hines was walked to load the bags. Tomek’s line drive to centerfield scored the winning run.
The Blackcats were up by four runs by the fourth inning of the second game and built at 5-0 edge by the end of the sixth.
Dickinson started a two-out rally in the bottom of the seventh with two hits after a walk. Barajaz knocked one high into center field for an RBI and Ardrey followed with a similar hit to right field. Travis Tomek came out of center and fired a bullet to Leissner, who made the play at home for the final out.
Zach Benson pitched seven innings with a strikeout in every inning.

The material used for the method was a photopolymer—a kind of light-activated resin. This was a time when the primary strong, 3D printed object got here to be. As it did this, each of those layers corresponded to a cross-sectional slice within the 3D mannequin. And you understand high precision machining what happened after that to Dr. Hideo Kodama’s failed patent .
