NorCal baseball regionals: De La Salle’s Tanner Griffith drives in the winning run in the ninth inning
Tanner Griffith, shown here in a file photo, drove in the game-winning run against Franklin-Elk Grove. CONCORD – It was one of those rare contests that lived up to the pre-game hype. And then some.
De La Salle takes on Valley Christian Saturday for the D-I championship. Franklin finished the season at 30-5.Both starting pitchers, juniors Meyn from De La Salle and Nic Abraham from Franklin, came into the contest with 10-0 records. They departed before either could get a decision. Back came De La Salle in the bottom of the third. Freshman Tyler Spangler tripled. Smith Chandler singled home Spangler, then moved to second on a single by Griffith.
“It was my third at-bat,” Harrison said. “They were throwing me nothing but sliders and curves. I had a couple of ugly swings. I finally hit a slider.” They were a combined 2 for 6 with two runs scored, but the second run was the result of an error. Stevens, however, is a Baseball America’s top 500 draft prospect and has signed a letter of intent to Mississippi State.
Randall, who hadn’t pitched since May 16, was superb. He walked the first batter he faced,, then retired seven in a row before allowing a two-out single by Stevens in the ninth.
