Standings Leaders All Win

| June 18, 2016

June 18, 2016 The top four teams in the standings all won games on this busy Saturday in the CCL as the 2016 race for the league playoffs starts to take shape. Here is a recap of what happened where in the CCL today. Healdsburg, CA For the second time in as many days the Healdsburg Prune Packers shutout the visiting Orange County Riptide, winning today 3-0 behind the strong pitching performance of Steve Wilson (Santa Clara). Wilson started the game and threw six hitless innings with six strikeouts to earn the win. Relievers Cody Bennett (Sonoma State) and Jordan Scheftz pitched the last three innings likewise without allowing a run and, in total, the three Packers pitchers allowed only three hits and two walks. See the boxscore/recap here. Santa Barbara, CA The Santa Barbara Foresters won their sixth straight CCL game today beating the visiting Menlo Park Legends 4-3 at Caesar Uyesaka Stadium. Santa Barbara was led from the mound today as Cody Crouse had six strikeouts over seven innings while allowing only one run. Lex Kaplan (Tulane), Dylan Paul (Texas State) and Hank LoForte (Cal St Fullerton) had multiple hit games for the Foresters, highlighted by Kaplan's first home run of the season, a solo blast in the third inning. Menlo Park scored twice in the top of the ninth inning to get within one run of tying the game but Forester reliever Daniel Robert (Auburn) wrangled himself out of the jam to earn a save. See the boxscore/recap here. Long Beach, CA The offense of the Academy Barons just keeps racking up hits, totaling 14 hits today in a 6-3 win over the Long Beach Legends. The Barons have gotten 11 or more hits as a lineup in each of their last three games and today it was Martin Teague (Hope Int), three doubles and three RBI; and Adonis Morrison (UC Riverside), a triple and two singles; leading the way. Starting pitcher Ryan Hare (UNLV) had an adventurous night on the mound, allowing seven hits and three walks in five innings of work but also striking out seven. See the boxscore/recap here.
