RBIs.
Zeke Gonzales hit one double and had three RBIs, and John Valez

Panther pitcher Austin Craig got the win for Mabank after
striking out six and allowing just three hits.
“We didn't play our best ballgame at all,” Kemp head baseball
coach Brandon Hankins said.
“We played a little tight and made too many mistakes. Mabank is
a good, well-coached ball club, you can't make mistakes against
a group like that,” he added. “We need to play better ... and we
will. Our kids are working hard daily to do the right things. We
will work this week to get back on track.”
