San Marcos bats fall silent in 4-3 loss to Austin Westlake

San Marcos has had trouble getting over the hump against the top teams in the state.

Opening your schedule against No. 1 Lake Travis and then following it up with the state’s No. 8 6A team in Austin Westlake is a challenging task for anyone, especially when you believe you have a chance to win. 

The Rattlers fell one run short of defeating the Chaparrals in a nine-inning district matchup, after tying the game 3-3 at the bottom of the seventh. Westlake — with its potent batting lineup — finally broke the slump in extra innings, snatching a 4-3 win over San Marcos on the road.
