District baseball roundup: King relies on its depth
TAMPA — After only a handful of pitches, it was clear Brandon Caples did not — and would not — have his best stuff. The King senior, who came into the game with an 8-0 record and 1.25 ERA, was obviously not his usual self in the District 6A-11 championship ...
