Scots Can Clinch Playoff Berth Tonight
The Highland Park baseball team can secure its 10th straight playoff berth tonight with a win over rival Pearce. First pitch is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. in Richardson.
The Scots (20-7-1, 8-1) are just one game behind first-place Rockwall-Heath (28-0, 9-0) in the district standings. However, HP is four games ahead of fifth-place Pearce (11-8, 4-5) heading into tonight. With a win, the Scots would be five games up on the Mustangs with four games left in the regular season.
