Another stellar season for Marx and Tecumseh
HENDERSON, Ky. (WEHT) – Throughout the Tri-State there are few players who amount to the success that Katelyn Marx has conjured up over the course of her school career.
A 2-time state champion, the all-time single season hits leader in three different seasons and now potentially looking at an award to add to her collection – 2025 Indiana Miss Softball.
Tecumseh shuts out West Vigo for fourth straight regional championship
Another stellar season for Marx and Tecumseh, as they look for a 4th consecutive state finals appearance. The senior batted 5.44 with 56 hits and 43 runs scored while commanding the base paths – a big reason the Braves won 1A titles in both freshman and sophomore seasons.
But before Marx heads off to Southern Indiana next year, her goal is to bring Tecumseh to a 2A title as they prepare for Semi-State.

Giants beat the slumping Braves 5-4 in 10 innings on a wild pitch
Tyler Fitzgerald scored on a wild pitch by Pierce Johnson with two outs in the 10th inning and the San Francisco Giants beat the Atlanta Braves 5-4 on Friday night for their third straight win. After getting picked off first to end the ninth, Fitzgerald began the 10th on second base. He advanced to third on a one-groundout and then scored when Johnson (1-2) threw a 1-2 pitch to the backstop, sending the Braves to their fifth straight loss. Spencer Bivens (2-2) came on with the bases loaded in the 10th and got Luke Williams on a groundout to end the inning for the win. Craig Kimbrel, the Braves' career leader in saves, made his first appearance for Atlanta since the 2014 season when he entered the game in the seventh. He allowed a leadoff single to Heliot Ramos, but got bailed out when Sean Murphy threw out Ramos trying to steal second to keep it tied at 4. Kimbrel then walked Jung Hoo Lee, but picked him off first and then struck out Wilmer Flores to get out of the inning. The Giants' struggling offense produced three runs in the first with help from two errors by Atlanta and a run-scoring wild pitch thrown by Spencer Schwellenbach. San Francisco led 4-2 before the Braves tied it in the seventh when Matt Olson hit a two-run homer off reliever Ryan Walker. Key moment There was an odd moment in the fourth inning when Murphy hit a sacrifice fly to right with the bases loaded for Atlanta. Olson easily beat the throw by Mike Yastrzemski, but there was confusion because a ball had been thrown on the field by a fan in the stands. The umpires huddled to discuss it, but let the play stand. Key stat Both teams played their 26th one-run game, tied for the most in the majors. The Giants improved to 14-12 in those games and the Braves fell to 9-17. Up next RHP Bryce Elder (2-3, 4.56 ERA) will start the middle game of the series for Atlanta against RHP Logan Webb (5-5, 2.55).

What we learned as Giants outlast Braves in thrilling extra-inning win
What we learned as Giants outlast Braves in thrilling extra-inning win originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area BOX SCORE SAN FRANCISCO – Talk about a crazy way to get a walk-off win. Tyler Fitzgerald scored on a two-out wild pitch in the bottom of the 10th inning, giving the Giants a 5-4 win over the Atlanta Braves at Oracle Park on Friday night. It was a wacky but fitting end to a game during which the Giants flipped the tables on just about everything they had been doing this season. Advertisement San Francisco's pitching, which has shouldered the bulk of the load this season, suffered through a tough evening as starter Hayden Birdsong struggled with his command and normally reliable reliever Ryan Walker was tagged for a momentum-changing home run by Braves slugger Matt Olson in the seventh inning. Conversely, Camilo Doval shook off a month's worth of ups and downs and struck out the side in the ninth inning. Things were a little more encouraging at the plate, too. With a history of failing to generate much offense this season, San Francisco opened with three runs in the first inning against Atlanta, the second-most runs put up in the opening frame by the Giants this season. Leadoff hitter Heliot Ramos had three hits and scored a run. Wilmer Flores also had two hits and scored twice. Fan favorite Jung Hoo Lee reached base three times (single, two walks) and Dominic Smith drove in two runs. Advertisement Birdsong's fourth start since being taken out of the bullpen didn't go very far, primarily due to a heavy pitch count. The Braves were patient at the plate, forcing Birdsong deep into counts which quickly depleted him on the mound. Birdsong allowed just two hits and two runs to go with five strikeouts before his night ended in the middle of the fifth inning. Tristan Beck followed Birdsong and retired four batters before Ryan Walker took over. Walker got Ronald Acuna Jr. to strike out swinging to end the sixth then ran into immediate trouble in the seventh. Austin Riley singled leading off the inning before Olson crushed an 0-1 slider over the brick wall in right field to tie the game at 4-4. Advertisement The game was paused briefly in the fourth inning when someone in the stands threw a baseball onto the field at the same time the Braves scored a run on Michael Harris II's RBI single. Here are the takeaways from Friday's game: Let's Get It Started The Giants' offensive struggles over the past month have been well-documented, which made their first inning against the Braves impressive. San Francisco began the inning with three consecutive singles, with Wilmer Flores' bloop hit to right driving in Heliot Ramos. Dominic Smith added a sacrifice fly and Flores later scored on a wild pitch. It's the third time this season that the Giants have put up three runs or more in the first inning. Their season-high for runs in the first inning is five, which they put up against the New York Yankees in a six-inning rain-shortened game on April 11. Hayden's Control Issues For most of the season Birdsong has done a fine job of not giving up free passes but the right-hander wasn't able to sustain that against the Braves, which wound up being a big reason for his early exit after 4 1/3 innings. Advertisement Birdsong missed his target much of the night, throwing only 52 of 93 pitches for strikes, while matching his career-high of five walks. To put that in perspective, Birdsong had given up 12 walks all season and just four in his previous five starts. Baserunning Blunders The Giants did a solid job of getting men on base. Keeping them there was another matter altogether and a big reason that the Orange and Black went quiet over the final half of the game. Heliot Ramos singled leading off the eight but was thrown out trying to steal second base. The following batter, Lee, drew a walk but was promptly erased after being picked off by Braves reliever Craig Kimbrel. In the eighth, Fitzgerald reached on a two-out single but was picked off by Braves pitcher Pierce Johnson. Advertisement For a team that has struggled to score this season, the Giants have no reason to let up in situations like that. Rhose mistakes were magnified in a game this close.
