ROUND ROCK, Texas -- Chris Baer went 3-for-4 with four RBIs and Scott Shimek struck out 10 as Shiner won its fourth state title with a 13-3 victory over Follett in the Class A final Friday.
Shiner (23-9) won its second Class A title, with the other coming in 2002. It won 2A titles in 1981 and 1992.
Shiner went up 13-3 in the fourth on Baer's RBI single, setting up the 10-run rule after the fifth inning. Baer was the MVP.
Shimek (8-4) scattered four hits and walked three. Shiner committed four errors, and none of Follett's runs were earned.
Follett (23-4) took a 2-0 lead off two hits and two errors in the first inning. But Shiner came back with three in the first and five in the second and the fourth.
