Case throws one-hitter, Mariners blank Cards

Bryan Case limited the Cardinals to just one hit and struck out 11

in five innings pitched, and the Mariners paired that performance with a

potent offense to record a 9-0 shutout victory in Fountain Valley Little

League Majors Division play at Mile Square Park.

Carlos Telez produced a two-run scoring single, Ryan Buckles singled and

doubled, Justin Maddux hit an RBI single, Tim Nash smacked a ground rule

double, and Nate Cotton and Matt Bennett each drove in runs for the

Mariners, who also were 3-1 winners over the Marlins.

Michael Maghy’s single was the lone hit mustered by the Cardinals, who

also beat the Royals during the week, 9-4.
