The team was riding on the bus after their win singing along to Ramón Ayala's iconic and emotional "Tragos Amargos" late Thursday night, after blanking Argyle 9-0 for the 4A UIL state baseball title.
The moment was captured by Sinton asst. baseball coach Andres Alaniz, brother of head coach Adrian Alaniz.
"Just some South Texas kids that enjoy the music," he said.

Alaniz captured video of pitcher Wyatt Wiatrek leading the team after Wednesday's semifinal win against Celina, and Thursday night's encore.
"Wyatt has just taken a liking to the music and our kids enjoy seeing him take the lead of serenading us," Andres Alaniz told KRIS 6 News. "Most of them grew up listening to great music by different genres. Most don't even know what they are saying but love to sing it."
Way to represent, Pirates!
