Rosas' Gem Puts Bobcats One Step Closer to Playoffs

 

KILLEEN, TX-- The Central Bobcats picked up a crucial 5-2 win on the road against Harker Heights in District 8-6A action on Tuesday.

Rance Rosas threw a complete game where he allowed the two runs on two hits with five strikeouts to get the win.

The Bobcats opened the scoring with a four-run third inning highlighted by a two-run double by Cole Nelson. The Knights scored a run in the bottom of the inning to make it 4-1 Central.

Nelson finished with a team-leading two RBIs in his 1-for-3 performance.
