OAKS JUST SHORT OF WIN
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- The weekend
series started with a loss for the Conejo Oaks (3-4, 3-4) who took on
California Collegiate League rivals the Santa Maria Valley Packers (6-2, 2-2).
The Oaks took the lead in the bottom
of the sixth inning when first baseman David Casey hit a two run home run over
the right field fence. The Packers answered back though, in the top of the
eighth with three runs on two hits. A late rally in the bottom of the ninth
didn't produce the runs that the Oaks needed. With the game tying run on second
base, pinch hitter Kyle Jones struck out swinging to end the game.
The Oaks will face the Packers in
game two of the series tomorrow, Saturday, June 13th at Sparky Anderson Field.
First pitch is 1:00pm.
Sunday,
June 14th is Youth Baseball Day. Any child wearing their team jersey will get
to participate in fun activities throughout the game.
