Ratanatraiphob Sets Stolen-Base Mark
Highland Hall High second baseman Tum Ratanatraiphob became the Southern Section career stolen-base leader after stealing three in the Hawks’ 24-3 nonleague Small Schools Division victory Friday over Westview at Granada Hills Recreation Center.
Ratanatraiphob entered the game with 111 stolen bases, two behind record-holder Dave McLelland, who swiped 113 bases from 1977-80 at Rio Hondo Prep. Ratanatraiphob, a junior, stole a base in the first inning, then stole second and third in the second inning to tie and break the mark.
Jakob Jensen doubled, tripled, homered and drove in five runs for Highland Hall (11-5), which outscored its opponents, 69-15, in three games this week. Josh Johansen added three hits for the Hawks.
