We get too spoiled thinking if we get four runs our pitchers will hold them. The Broncos advanced to the championship game with a 4-3 win over Midland Saturday. Kyle Yost provided a gutsy performance on the mound to improve to 7-5. He gave up three runs, one earned, on seven hits in eight innings. He struck out seven and walked one.
Errors cost both teams early on.
The Broncos took a 3-2 lead in the fourth with all five runs unearned. Midland tied the game 3-3 in the bottom of the fifth, and the score remained even until the top of the ninth. Corey Amateis drew a walk to start the inning and moved to second on Smith's sacrifice. The Warriors got their lead runner on in the bottom of the inning when David Davis was hit by Yost's pitch. But McKee entered the game and got the next three batters out.
