El Toro 4, Dana Hills 5

In a mid week, South Coast League match up, the Dana Hills Dolphins took down El Toro 5-4 in extra innings.

It had been a back and forth affair, with the Dolphins going up 2-0, the Chargers coming back to go up 3-2, then Dana Hills pushed 2 across in the 6th to take a 4-3 lead into the 7th.

With 1 out, Sean Nearhoof came up with a great at bat, working 8 pitches before finally singling to left. After a fly ball out and 1 out away from the game ending, Dan James stroked a double down the right field line driving in pinch runner Jayson Yano to tie it up. El Toro held in the bottom and we went to the 8th.

El Toro wasn't able to score in the top half of the 8th and with 2 outs Dana Hills was able to drive in the winning run.

Gavin Collins had 2 hits on the day along with 2 rbi's to lead the Charger attack.

With the loss, El Toro drops to 6-4 on the year and 1-1 in league play. They come back on Friday with another league game at home against San Clemente. Game time 3:15pm.
