Baseball:
There was no doubt that Dan Henley’s players were going to send him off a winner on Friday afternoon.
With former coaches and players dating back to the 1980’s on hand to pay tribute to Henley’s more than two decades at the helm, the Tartans finished the 2021 season with a 5-2 victory over Alta Loma.
Next week, we will be publishing a story on Henley’s career, including a photo gallery, so for now, we’ll stick to what he wants to focus on….the game of baseball.
Jeff Isenhart went two scoreless innings to pick up the win.
Isenhart allowed one hit, walked a pair and fanned two ALHS batters.
Donovann Jackson contributed two scoreless innings of his own and got five of his six outs via strikeout.
Alta Loma got a pair of unearned runs off Trevor Ingersoll on one hit.
Ingersoll walked and struck out one Braves’ batter.
And Josh VerKuilen closed out career win No. 481 for the 58-year old Glendora coach.
David Gonzalez walked, singled, doubled and drove in a run for ALHS.
