Lambert's home scoreboard malfunctioned halfway through the first game of the Class AAAAAA first round series against Mountain View on Friday night, leaving many fans wondering just how many more outs the Longhorns had left to salvage their season. After losing Game 1, 7-1, and falling behind 1-0 in Game 2, Lambert took to the plate not only facing a no-hitter, but elimination in the first round for the second year in a row.
