The MHSAA high school baseball playoffs began Friday and there were five teams in our coverage area that competed. Six total teams are playing in the postseason, but Oak Grove is the lone team with a bye into the second round.
Below is a recap of area Game 1s:
Petal vs. D’Iberville
On this week’s episode of The PineBeltSPORTS Podcast, we focus solely on this weekend’s first round of the high school baseball playoffs.
We discuss Petal-D’Iberville (8:40), Pass High-Sumrall (15:15), Purvis-St. Stanislaus (19:05), Mt. Olive-Lumberton (22:55) and Sacred Heart-Sebastopol (25:10) throughout the episode.
The Sumrall Bobcats ended the regular season with only one loss to a Mississippi team, posting a 24-3 overall record entering the 4A playoffs.
On this week’s episode of The PineBeltSPORTS Podcast, Camal and Andrew open with quirky traditions at The Masters (2:40) before jumping into more local discussions.
On this week’s episode of The PineBeltSPORTS Podcast, Camal and Andrew discuss the Petal-Oak Grove game Tuesday, each of our area team’s playoff picture and some Southern Miss baseball as it prepares for a weekend series against Marshall.
SUMRALL – The Sumrall Lady Bobcats desperately needed a win Monday night against Greene County. Without a win, a playoff berth would have been highly unlikely.
SUMRALL – The Purvis Tornadoes outhit the Sumrall Bobcats and smashed three home runs Friday night, but it still wasn’t enough to take down their rivals.
On this week’s episode of The PineBeltSPORTS Podcast, we take a deep dive into Sumrall’s win over Purvis and PCS’ conference-opening win over MRA.
After discussing other prep teams last week, we made sure to include Purvis and PCS this week. After that, we close with a Southern Miss baseball discussion.
PURVIS – Sumrall set the tone when Javan Williams hit a solo home run off Purvis’ starting pitcher Jessie Johnson in the second inning.
PURVIS – David Entrekin thinks he has two aces on his Purvis softball team, and he’s not afraid to roll the dice with either of them.
