Toros overcome 6-0 deficit for first title game appearance
The Matilda Torres Toros were rocked on their heels early in Tuesday’s Div. V semifinal battle with the Sierra Chieftains.
The Chieftains scored six runs in the first two innings to jump out to the early lead. Then, the top-seeded Toros got into the swing of things to score 10 straight runs. They held off a late charge for a 10-8 victory to earn a berth in the program’s first Central Section championship game.
“We had to make a couple of adjustments,” head coach Bryan Rubalcaba said. “A few days off got us out of rhythm. We found it and did what we had to do.”
