Patrick Henry 7, Eastlake 6
ALCALA PARK — In a contest with neither team was refusing to lose, the Patrick Henry Patriots scored four times in the top of the sdeventh, then turned a game-ending double play to captured the CIFSDS Open Division championship with a 7-6 decision over the Eastlake Titans in Saturday’s f(May 30) finale at USD’s Fowley Field,
Eastlakw was three outs away from the crown, but the Patiots piecded tigether four hits to tie the contest, then an error loaded the bases, with a walk to Ian Brooke pushing across the go-ahead run.
The Titans answered by placing their first two batters inbase, =advancing them 90 feet on a sacrifice bunt.
Then the fun began.
A sacrifice fly to left field could’ve again tied the contest. However, Patrick Henry left fielder Tico Stepner — instead of firing the ball home — sent his upexpected throw to second base, where shortstop Lukas Oquendo,made the tag for the unusualy, yet game-ending double play.
Stepnerwas been a starter for less than a month, moving into the line-up on May6 with two weeks left in the regular season.
