Baseball: Carroll stays alive with Game 2 win over Arlington Martin (web exclusive)
By Justin Thomas, jthomas@starlocalnews.com
FORT WORTH -- Southlake Carroll's baseball team kept its state title aspirations alive Thursday night staving off the first of two elimination games in its best-of-3 regional finals series against Arlington Martin at Charlie Lupton Stadium on the campus of TCU.
The Dragons rebounded from Wednesday's Game 1 loss to defeat the Warriors, 2-0.
Greg Maisto continued his dominant postseason on the bump for Carroll, firing a complete game one-hit shutout. The lefty allowed just a single on a comebacker that grazed off his glove.
The Dragons got the offense it needed early when Chris Altimont opened the contest with aleadoff walk and came around to score on a first-pitch run-scoring double with one out from Kenny Hill.
Hill will later score an insurance run in the sixth for Carroll, reaching on a walk before advancing to second on a sacrifice, stealing third and scoring on a sacrifice fly from Barnes.
The series concludes with Game 3 at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at TCU with the winner advancing to state next weekend in Round Rock.
