The Colts took a 4-1 lead into the top of the fifth inning over their visitors from Charter Oak. The Chargers bats, though, erupted for 11 runs over the final […]

Photos by Gwen Pointer Baseball: It kind of looked like a mismatch early on when San Dimas hosted Charter Oak on Wednesday.

Baseball: Baseball is a very humbling game. Bonita went over to last-place Colony (1-15) hoping to strengthen its hold on the second-place slot in the Palomares League. The Bearcats got two scoreless innings from Edrian Rangel and led 4-0 as they headed into the bottom of the fourth inning. Colony, however, got four runs in […]

Baseball: To put in bluntly, South Hills looked every bit a first-place program in the Hacienda League, while Rowland occupies the league cellar.
