Holbrook’s baseball season came to a close on Monday afternoon with a 17-1 road loss at Show Low. Holbrook struggled on the diamond all season long winning just two of their 17 regular season contests. Show Low is highly ranked in 3A and the difference between the two squads was evidenced early on. Show Low opened the game up from the outset scoring 11 runs in the bottom of the first inning. They added on two in the second, three in the third and a final run in the home half of the fourth.
