2 games against San Clemente and 2 losses. What more can you say? This one ended up closer than last week, but the result was still the same.
San Clemente jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first and El Toro was chasing the rest of the game. Can't say ET played bad, just San Clemente played better. The Charger pitchers didn't throw bad (Hammond, Schaefers, Wirth, Tredwell) but they just couldn't finish them off. The Tritons did a great job, hitter after hitter, with 2 strikes. Some very solid approaches at the plate.
El Toro came back from the 2-0 deficit to take a 3-2 lead in the 3rd, then SC tied it up and eventually took the lead 7-3. El Toro fought back on a Gavin Collins home run to left and narrowed the gap to 1, but in the 7th, San Clemente posted another 2 runs and El Toro ran out of gas.
Final - San Clemente 9, El Toro 6.
The loss pushes the Chargers record to 4-3 on the year (with 2 of the losses to San Clemente) with the opening of the Sea View league on Friday with an away game at Northwood. Start time is 3:15pm.
