San Antonio scored two runs in the ninth to win 8-6. Both teams are now tied in the Texas League South Standings (30-37).<\/p>\n<p>The Hooks celebrated George West night on Friday. The city&#8217;s youth choir, mayor, city administrator and community came out to the field for the game. The city will be celebrating Live Oak County&#8217;s 170th year on the Fourth of July with a parade, fireworks and more. Mayor Andrew Garza is excited to highlight some of George West&#8217;s traditions during the free festivities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re going to have a huge parade in the city of George West. We&#8217;re going to have Longhorns,&#8221; Garza said. &#8220;They&#8217;re going to be coming through the streets of George West just like when George West actually brought Longhorns from up north. It&#8217;s going to allow us to help us build a partnership with the county.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1782081196_870_.jpeg\" alt=\"170 Years of Live Oak County and America\u2019s 250th!!!\"  width=\"1080\" height=\"1398\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Richard Robinson<\/p>\n<p>Game 5 between the Hooks and Missions is set for Saturday at 7:05 p.m. at Whataburger Field with a Yainer Diaz Jersey giveaway for the first 2,000 fans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas \u2014 The Corpus Christi Hooks made a late comeback against the Missions in game 4&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":345081,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[13723,123071,1816,5248,155,157,156,114586,11671,29051,54259,54657],"class_list":["post-345080","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-corpus-christi","tag-13723","tag-andrew-garza","tag-baseball","tag-concert","tag-corpus-christi","tag-corpus-christi-headlines","tag-corpus-christi-news","tag-fourth-of-july","tag-free","tag-george-west","tag-hooks","tag-missions"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/345080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=345080"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/345080\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/345081"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=345080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=345080"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=345080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
