Huntington Beach versus El Toro - Game 10

El Toro - 14
Huntington Beach - 2

This game was dictated by the starting pitching of Ricky Schafer. Schafer threw a complete game, allowing 1 run in the 3rd and another in the 7th. Best performance on the year by him against probably the best team he's faced. El Toro needed this as they've run into some injuries with their pitchers and have had to bring up Freshman in order to fortify the bullpen.

From an offensive standpoint, again in order to score 14 runs, lots of kids need to have lots of great at bats. Gavin Collins with 2 huge doubles, Jayson Yano with a multi hit game, Logan Roberts with a single and double and multiple rbi's, Mitchell Tolman with a triple driving in a couple more, James Meager with a hit and rbi. From a fielding standpoint, Roberts got a chance to show off his gun in center when in the 6th, HB had a man on second, 2 outs and got a base hit up the middle. Logan charged it and came up throwing to the plate, cutting down the Oiler runner trying to score from second!

With the win, the Chargers record moves to 7-3 and more importantly, 3-0 in league play. They're off for the weekend before coming back Tuesday the 30th with a home game against Sea View league rival Foothill Knights. 3:15pm start time.

Go Chargers,

Bill

Glad to see Schafers had a good game, you guys are going to need him.

Heard Wirth is hurt, is he going to be coming back soon? What did he do?

I spoke with his dad the other day and he said it's just a strain in a ligament in his shoulder. The trainer gave him some shoulder exercises and that's been helping. It looks like he should be fine and back within another week or so (he's already been out for a week).
