Temple City 2 San Marino 0 <\/strong><\/p>\n (Temple City) – Temple City has yet to taste defeat so far and ran its winning streak to 10 straight with a 2-0 victory over San Marino Tuesday in a key Rio Hondo league contest. The Rams improved\u00a0to 10-0-1 and 3-0 in league while the Titans are 9-2 overall and 2-1 in the RHL.<\/p>\n Corey Copping faced two-on situations in four separate innings but, thanks in part to a solid infield, battled his way out of them all with two grounders, a double play, and strikeout, eventually posting a complete game three hit shutout that featured seven strikeouts and 118 total pitches. Copping also contributed at the plate as well, going 2 for 3 with a double and RBI pop drop single that Gabriel Juarez took advantage of to score the first\u00a0run. Ben Arrue punched through the other RBI hit for TC in the fourth.<\/p>\n The Titans had a big opportunity in the second\u00a0after drawing two one-out walks and loading the bases with 2 outs on a hit by Garrett Glazier, but a runner’s interference call on the ensuing batter’s act, a slow hopping drive towards second, ended the inning. Temple City shortstop Cameron Le Grand charged for the scoop and collided with a speeding Glazier chest up. Both fell back-head first but returned to action immediately. Glazier, a key component of the Titans’ pitching staff, was rested the last three innings.<\/p>\n San Marino starter Jeff Bain had five Ks, including two called-third strikes to start the fifth\u00a0stanza before being taken out after Jonah Jarrard’s long single to the right field corner, eventually taking the loss having yielded five hits and two error-aided unearned runs. Garrett Young arrived and went unscathed for four\u00a0straight outs. Bain and Jarrard added a little intrigue to the game as both play for and are returning starters (pitcher, catcher – respectively) of the Arroyo Seco Saints summer club team based out of Brookside Park in Pasadena.<\/p>\n SM 000 000 0 – 0 3 3<\/p>\n TC 001 100 x – 2 5 2<\/p>\n Monrovia 6 La Canada 4 <\/strong><\/p>\n (Monrovia) – Monrovia responded to an early 3-0 deficit in the third inning\u00a0against La Canada Tuesday by spinning off six\u00a0straight runs to take a 6-3 lead and eventually winning 6-4, setting up another big Rio Hondo league showdown at Temple City against the Rams.<\/p>\n \u00a0The Wildcats scored twice in the third\u00a0and fourth before rounding it out with one\u00a0each in the next two frames.<\/p>\n \u00a0Kevin Shue was relieved with 1 out in the third by submarine pitcher Brad Felty, who picked up the win in relief after tossing four\u00a0no-hit innings. The only interruptions were one walk and an unearned run. Joe Mata came in with one\u00a0out in the seventh\u00a0and shut the door for the save.<\/p>\n David Perez scored twice and went 2 for 2 with an RBI. Justin Jones was the other multi-hitter for M-Town going 2 for 4 with an RBI double.<\/p>\n LC 102 000 1 – 4 4 2<\/p>\n M 002 211 x – 6 7 3<\/p>\n South Pasadena – bye<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Corey Kwok Temple City 2 San Marino 0 (Temple City) – Temple City has yet to taste defeat so far and ran its winning streak to 10 straight with a 2-0 victory over San Marino Tuesday in a key Rio Hondo league contest.
