Playing with its back against the wall after falling to Shallowater 6-5 on Thursday in Game 1 of the Region I-3A championship series, the Brock baseball team’s urgency was apparent from the start in Friday’s Game 2.

The Eagles took control early with a four-run top of the first inning and used a strong pitching performance from Peyton Shaffer and Ian Fuchs to maintain command in a 7-0 victory at Abilene Christian University’s Crutcher Scott Field.

With the win, BHS forced a deciding third game on Saturday, scheduled for 1 p.m. back at Crutcher Scott Field.
