Prep baseball: Estancia errors spell defeat

Share via

FOUNTAIN VALLEY - Two costly errors opened the door for host Los

Amigos High, which scored four unearned runs in the sixth to break open a

scoreless tie and claim a 4-1 nonleague baseball win Wednesday over

Estancia.

A misplayed fly ball to the outfield and another error put the Lobos in

front, dropping the Eagles to 2-3, heading into Friday’s Pacific Coast

League opener at cross-town rival Costa Mesa.

Brent Davis doubled, advanced to third and scored on Jordan Hart’s

groundout for Estancia’s lone run in the seventh, as left-hander Bishop

Griggs pitched a complete-game five-hitter to improve to 2-1. Including

Tuesday’s 1-0 win over Costa Mesa, Lobo pitchers have yielded just one

run their last 14 innings.

David Akiva and C.K. Green pitched effectively for the Eagles. Both

failed to get hits, but Akiva (.563) and Green (.555) are swinging the

hottest Estancia bats entering league.
