Breakers drop pair to Tritons

San Clemente High swept a nonleague baseball doubleheader Monday from

Laguna Beach.

The Tritons defeated the Breakers by scored of 12-6 and 12-3 at San Juan Sports Complex.

In the first game, Laguna got homeruns from Alex Wilson and Jeff

Bolar.

Wilson hit a two-run shot in the first inning, and Bolar had a

solo homer in the second inning.

Evan Eeds doubled.

Wilson finished the game with four RBI and Bolar and Eeds each had

one.

San Clemente, which was coming off a runner-up finish to Marina at

the Loara Tournament, led by just 8-6 in the seventh inning, but used

a two-out grand slam to pad its lead.

In the second game, a 12-3 loss, Conley Sampson hit a solo home

run over the left field fence in the first inning for Laguna.

Kevin Kelly later doubled for the Breakers and Eeds and Jake

Wheeler each had an RBI.

San Clemente gained control of the game by scoring six runs in its

first at-bat.

Prior to taking on San Clemente, Laguna battled Savanna and

Estancia in a pair of consolation bracket games at the Newport Elks

Tournament.

Laguna was edged by host Savanna, 6-5, as the Rebels pushed across

the winning run in the bottom of the sixth inning.

Laguna had scored three runs in the fourth and one in the fifth to

tie the game at 5-5.

Bolar and Garrett Rauch each doubled.

Rauch led the Breakers with three RBI and Kelly and Aaron Pickett

each had one RBI.

Grant Harrell threw seven solid innings in a complete-game effort.

Laguna routed visiting Estancia, 12-1, as Bolar threw all seven

innings en route to his first win of the season and Laguna’s first

home victory in 2004.

The junior scattered five hits and threw just 79 total pitches.

He also aided his pitching cause by hitting two doubles.

Laguna, which racked up 13 hits, overall, blew the game open with

a 10-run fourth inning.

That inning included a pair of home runs, one a two-run shot by

Wilson, the other, a three-run blast by Wheeler.

Wheeler finished with three RBI, Sampson doubled twice and

collected three RBI, Kelly had three RBI, Wilson also doubled and had

two RBI and Rauch picked up an RBI.

Laguna (2-5) returns to the diamond today at 3:15 p.m. to host
