A tense showdown at Dell Diamond
The Class 3A Division I baseball state championship unfolded at Dell Diamond in Round Rock, drawing a packed crowd eager to see top high school talent clash.
London struck first, with Aiden Salinas launching a solo homer and Christian Olivares following with a two‑run shot that put the visitors ahead early.
Boyd’s rally
Boyd answered swiftly, stringing together a series of hits that produced four unanswered runs in the fourth inning, flipping the momentum and taking a 7‑3 lead by the bottom of the fifth.
On the mound, London’s starter Connor Clary was eventually relieved by Elijah Acosta, while Boyd’s ace Lane Beachum kept the pressure on the opposition.
The atmosphere remained electric as both benches watched closely, aware that a single swing could alter the narrative of a game that has already delivered plenty of drama.
