Fisher played a huge part in the lives of our players and members of our organization. It has been a tough week for all.
Losing a son, friend, and loved one is not easy, so please keep Fisher’s friends and family in your thoughts and prayers.
Once a Sting, always a Sting.
Please say a prayer for the Matthews family. This young man, Fisher Matthews, will always be a part of the TC Baseball family. Rest easy BI6FISH

@TCNextUp
I feel this 1000%. We are currently 4 days behind some of our district members simply due to the conditions of our field. Even with a tarp.
I invite any member of
@TexasCityISD
to come out and experience what it takes to keep our field playable.
The baseball and softball teams of
@CSISDAthletics
will be lucky to return to their fields in 4 or 5 days. At best. Lost practice time. Lost scrimmage time. Lost participation. There is 0 excuse when a simple solution is available and affordable. We MUST be better for our kids!
Proud of these boys. It’s never easy knowing when your season is going to end, but I think we have started something special down here in TC.
One last hoorah Friday in Friendswood!
The end of a season never gets any easier.. To our Seniors, THANK YOU for everything you gave to the program. I am proud to be an Oiler and I am proud of the effort of our team and coaching staff tonight.

Thoughts and prayers to the students, parents, and community of Uvalde as they begin their school year today.

Thank you to all the athletes that came out to tryouts this evening! And congratulations to the following athletes who have been invited back for Day 2!
Reminder: Day 2 will begin at 12:30. Scrimmage style tomorrow, so come prepared!
What a game for these TC boys. Showed toughness, tenacity, and perseverance. An average team would have folded, but these guys stayed locked in and ended it 1-0.
#OnToTheNext
What a week!
@stings_tc
go 3-0 with some great pitching and offensive performances. We made this goal a week ago and I’m proud these boys achieved it.
Still have a grind ahead but I know these dudes are up to the challenge.

One of the coolest moments of my career! Couldn’t ask for a better teammate than
@DakotaStunkard
Shows up to practice everyday, busts his butt, and keeps the boys up in the dugout every game.
You can see how much he means to these guys!
Tweet when we win. Tweet when we lose. Tough 10-4 loss tonight to open district play. Congrats to Coach Schmidt and the Ganders.
We will be better. Our school and our town deserve it.

Started off the weekend on the right foot! Solid 4-0 win over Splendora to begin the day and then beat Clear Falls in the night cap 5-4.
Rode two great outings on the mound from
@lozano_alec
and Pete Hipp.
Back in action tomorrow vs Clear Brook and Pearland.
@5ATxHSBaseball
Shout out to my guys
@gmoney23tct
and
@realjoeyduran4
for the truck detail. 2 kids and a dog makes it hard to keep up, but my guys did a great job fixing me up!
If you’re in the League City, Dickinson, Texas City area, they’ll come to ya.
What a great way to end the TC tournament! Went from 0-3 to 3-3 on the weekend with wins against some very solid, high quality competition.
Best part about it is the praise our boys were getting from other coaches.
“This isn’t the same Texas City we’re used to playing”
Proud of these dudes! EVERY guy in the class improved their 60 time in 2 months. Incredible. We also had 9 new additions to the under 7 club!
Congrats boys!
@stings_tc
@TCNextUp
Congratulations to all of the 2020 grads from

Special shoutout to all of my former students, athletes, and position players. So damn proud of all of you!
Love seeing my boy
@Cameron_Ponce6
make a great play, but the best part is the celebration by the TEAM!
Let’s get it done today fellas!
@Oiler_Baseball
Stings drop a tough one again tonight.. 8-7 to La Porte. I thought we played well enough to win, but sometimes the baseball gods have other plans.
Next up.. Friendswood and Youth League night on Friday at 6:00 at Robinson Stadium!
@stings_tc
@5ATxHSBaseball
Sounds like a conversation we had today after we had 14+ overthrows during warm-ups..
If one of the greatest to ever do it thinks this way, why can’t we?
Don't complicate winning.
Winning isn't about complexity; it's about doing the basics better than anyone else.
Focus, train hard, and stay disciplined.
Success isn't complicated, it's just hard work.
Coaching is far more than expressing what you’re doing right or wrong every swing. That would be exhausting for a coach with 40+ athletes in a program.
It’s about building relationships, having conversations, and helping the athlete to take ownership of their development.
Great way to rebound on Day 2 of the CCISD tournament. Picked up two quality Ws against two talented and well-coached programs.
G1 - 9-8 vs Brenham
G2 - 4-1 vs Clear Brook
Last game tomorrow 3:30 @ Lake vs Westside
@TCNextUp
@5ATxHSBaseball
Got another tally in the win column! Puts the
@stings_tc
at 2-3 on the season. Two more games to finish out the TC tournament! Come support the boys: 10:00 & 12:30 at Robinson
#ForTheCity
It’s hard being at home while your boys celebrate another dub! Great game by those kids and the coaches. Ready to be back with y’all next week! 3-0!!
#ForTheCity
Almost pulled it out today! Lost 3-4 to Santa Fe in extras. Fixed a few things we had been struggling with, but still far from where we want to be!
@stings_tc
@5ATxHSBaseball
BIG shoutout to all the seniors of
@PearlandHighSch
whose last day of class should have been today/this week!
You did it! Continue to strive for greatness and never be complacent.
And always remember

Oh... and

Great first week of scrimmages. Love what I’m seeing from our team. Improvements in the pitching staff, solid defensive play, QABs from our hitters, and demons on the bases. Can’t ask much more as a coach!

Fernando Tatis Jr. smacked a grand slam on a 3-0 count with a big lead, leading to criticism from both managers.
What do you think about this unwritten rule in baseball?

@PBAStarOfficial
for housing us the last two days! Mike and Darrin are top notch dudes and run a top tier program.
We appreciate the hospitality fellas!
Had the lead early, but dropped our non-district battle to state ranked Katy 4-1. Had some outstanding pitching on the mound to keep a powerful offense in check.
Stings are back in 22-5a action on Friday down on the island against GBall.

@TCNextUp
@5ATxHSBaseball
Not a pretty start to district play against one of the top arms in the district. Need more competitive at bats if we want to achieve our goals!
0-3 L vs La Porte

kept the game with reach in 5 inn of relief:
5.1 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 5 K, 1 BB
@TCNextUp
@5ATxHSBaseball
Scrimmages are only 1/4 of the season.. have a lot to improve on in different facets of the game, but I believe in this staff and these guys.
Can’t wait to strap it up again on Monday and get the next quarter of the season rolling!
