As for San Dieguito Academy, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matchups. That's provided a massive bump to their 8-6 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.0 runs on average over those games.
On San Dieguito Academy's side, Brandon Krasnow looked comfortable as he tossed two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits. The dominant performance also gave Krasnow a new career-high in strikeouts (four).
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Aaron Donegan, who got on base in all three of his plate appearances with two runs, one double, and one RBI. That's the most runs he has posted since back in March. Cody Tait also deserves some recognition as he hit his first double of the season.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Chula Vista will host Liberty at 1:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Bison's pitching crew has only allowed 3.6 runs per game this season, so the Spartans' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
