VILLA PARK, Calif. (KEYT) - Dos Pueblos erupted for five runs in the top of the 10th inning and just held on at Villa Park 7-6 in a CIF-Southern Section Division 3 quarterfinal thriller.
"What a game that was," stated DP head coach Mike Gerken. "It had everything you’d expect from teams wanting to to the semifinals. Great pitching , solid defense, and timely hitting. Our team showed tremendous courage today. The season was on the line and they came through."
No one scored until Villa Park plated 2 runs in the fifth inning.
The Chargers answered with 2 in the sixth inning as Kacey Hurley doubled in Anastasia Brunner and Juliana Brunner knocked in the other run with a grounder to the right side.
Juliana Brunner made a season-saving defensive play in the bottom of the seventh inning. With a runner on third, Brunner snagged a line drive and tagged the runner out to force extra innings.
