Baseball:

When you play four games in four days, pitching tends to run a little thin.

And such was the case for Bonita in the title game of the Norco Tournament.

The Cougars, playing on their own field, pounded out a 10-3 victory over the Bearcats on Saturday night.

Norco out-hit Bonita, 12-4, including a 5-0 advantage in extra-base hits.

Jacob Brown went five innings to earn the win.

He allowed three runs (two earned) on four hits.

Brown walked one and fanned three BHS batters.

Diego Vazquez was hit by a pitch, singled and scored twice for Bonita.

Garrett Patterson had an RBI single in the top of the first inning.

Bryan Bradshaw singled and scored.

Colton Perez had an RBI ground out.

Andrew Sanchez had one of BHS’ four singles.

Tristan Rambaud got the loss.

Rambaud went 1 1/3 innings and surrendered six runs on six hits.

He walked one and fanned one NHS batter.

Grant Gray walked, doubled twice, scored a pair of runs and had one RBI.

Logan Ortega walked, singled and scored.

Cameron Kim went 2-for-4, with two doubles, an RBI and scored twice.

Steven Jones had two singles, a run and a game-best four RBIs.

Ryan Farias went 3-for-4 with a double and two RBIs.

Up next: The Bearcats resume Palomares League play on Tuesday at Claremont for the first of two with the Wolfpack.
