Coming this afternoon

It was a big day on the baseball diamonds around Davis. Here's what you'll find when the brilliant B Section hits the streets in mere hours.

Ninth-inning heartbreak

The Daniel Descalso and Aaron Hanke hit parade continued Tuesday at Dobbins Stadium. Unfortunately for the Aggies, Cal staged a ninth-inning comeback that was the final showstopper. Down to the final strike in the ninth, Bears second baseman Josh Satfin’s two-run single capped a three-run inning as Cal edged UCD 7-6 in the Aggies’ toughest defeat all season.

Unseasonable victory for Devils

It was hard to tell whether it was March or May for the Davis High School baseball team.
On a warm and sunny and warm day at the ballpark, and the Blue Devils received strong pitching, flawless defense and production from every player in the lineup against a traditionally strong opponent. The Blue Devils looked to be in mid-season form in an 8-2 victory over Vacaville on Tuesday at the DHS field. The calendar, of course, read March.

And, coming Thursday:

Davis High girls soccer takes on rival St. Francis. The game has been switched from 7 p.m. at Halden Field to 3:30 p.m. at Yudin Field. The Blue Devils and Troubadours tied 2-2 in last season’s contest.
