Andrew sent nine batters to the plate in the third inning. Ten more Thunderbolts stepped into the batter’s box in the fifth. While those frames may have been long-lasting, the team’s SouthWest Suburban Red clash Friday against Stagg was not. The No. 7 Thunderbolts scored five runs in the third and seven more in the fifth en route to a 13-2 verdict … ]]> Fri, 04 May 2012 21:50:30 CST http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/12328920-393/baseball-andrews-two-big-innings-overwhelm-stagg.html http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/12328920-393/baseball-andrews-two-big-innings-overwhelm-stagg.html It’s no secret why Shepard has won seven of its last eight games: it’s offense. The Astros scored at least 10 runs in each of those victories. The latest victim was Tinley Park. Matt Scott belted a two-run triple and Adam Samad drove in two runs to lead host Shepard to a 13-3 five-inning victory over Tinley Park on Thursday in a … ]]> Thu, 19 Apr 2012 21:00:35 CST http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/12015491-393/baseball-offense-clicking-for-shepard-in-win-over-tinley-park.html http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/12015491-393/baseball-offense-clicking-for-shepard-in-win-over-tinley-park.html The formula was simple for Yorkville against Tinley Park, as against any opponent: get the leadoff batter on base, move him into scoring position and let the RBI guys bring him in. The Foxes executed that scenario to perfection Friday night in a Tinley Park Class 3A Regional semifinal as Yorkville scored a run in each of the first, second and fourth … ]]> Fri, 27 May 2011 22:21:43 CST http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/5637556-393/yorkville-small-ball-wears-down-tinley.html http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/5637556-393/yorkville-small-ball-wears-down-tinley.html
With nine batters having had reached base through four innings, Richards had chances to blow open Thursday’s game at Tinley Park. However, with three runners getting caught stealing on the basepaths, the Bulldogs managed only one run as they headed into the fifth inning tied up.

Andrew was playing its fifth game in as many days and had just come off a pasting at the hands of Lincoln-Way North. The Thunderbolts were looking to get a rebound performance in order to right the ship. The T-bolts got just that from a bullpen pitcher-turned-starter and the re-emergence of their bats. Andrew took its third consecutive Zabrocki Cup with a … ]]> Fri, 06 May 2011 22:40:00 CST http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/5231786-393/mckeown-andrew-earn-bragging-rights.html http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/5231786-393/mckeown-andrew-earn-bragging-rights.html The final score read Oak Forest 7, Tinley Park 4.

Tinley Park coach Brian Gibbons was optimistic about this season. But not even he envisioned a 10-2 start. That's where the Titans stand after edging host Eisenhower 3-1 in a South Suburban Conference tilt Thursday. "For someone to say we'd be 10-2, I'd say they were being gracious," Gibbons said. "We've got a good group of seniors." One of those seniors is … ]]> Sat, 09 Apr 2011 19:36:02 CST http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/4735562-393/surging-tinley-park-gets-10th-win.html http://highschoolsports.suntimes.com/schools/tinleypark/baseball/4735562-393/surging-tinley-park-gets-10th-win.html
