Interesting note is Del Oro is 3-1 in series openers with Ben Brown starting (loss came to Granite Bay. Wins over Folsom, Rocklin, Oak Ridge). Del Oro is 1-5 in the other league games.April 22 Scores

This is why I like series format rather than playing each team once then again down the road. You have an ace and you can set them up to counter every top team, but not in a series. Series shows a much batter barometer of a team and its depth (ie. pitching).Interesting note is Del Oro is 3-1 in series openers with Ben Brown starting (loss came to Granite Bay.

Totally Agree on this, I like the way the SFL does it with the 3 game series…. You at least should play back to back with the home and home set up…. I don’t like the way the EBAL does it where you play some teams once and some twice…. Example, Granada only plays DLS once this year, so they missed DLS’s best pitchers….This is why I like series format rather than playing each team once then again down the road.

The EBAL breaks out into 2 different divisions like they do in football, Mountain & Valley. DLS only plays the Valley teams once, but they have a 2-game back to back series with the teams in their division. Mountain teams are DLS, MV, SRV, Cal & DV. The top 3 in each division move on to the EBAL playoffs.Totally Agree on this, I like the way the SFL does it with the 3 game series….

The EBAL does have the tournament though so that does kind of even things out…..
CP Scraped by Northgate today 2-1!…. Northgates pitcher and defense was terrific today!…. Great Game!!Benicia shuts down Acalanes 8-1 tonight. After starting 17-0, they are now 17-2 having lost to CP last week.

Granada beat Dublin 2-0DLS beat Monte Vista today, 8-5. They gave up 5 runs in the top of the 3rd to fall behind 5-2, but finished strong. Blair hit a 2-run blast to get 'em in front.
It is interesting that DLS has had these losses the past two Saturdays. Still think they will be tough to beat come playoff time like they usually are.Elk Grove Beat DLS 3-2 on Sat….
That Drops DLS’s Record against SJS teams this year to 1-3…. With Losses to ST Mary’s, Jesuit and EG and a Win over Granite Bay….
Agreed!Would love to see the number of allowable contests in NCS increased to match SJS. In NCS you only get 24 games so that in effect prevents the 3 game series possibility or even a 2 game series in EBAL with the number of teams in the league
Forsure!…. Their Lineup is too stacked, they will be a Brutal Matchup for anyone in the playoffs…. And it’s not like they are getting Blown out….It is interesting that DLS has had these losses the past two Saturdays. Still think they will be tough to beat come playoff time like they usually are.
Delta League with Elk Grove, Franklin and Jesuit have come on strong in the past month
Totally!…. The other thing the NCS teams miss out on are the HS Tournaments…. They can’t play more then 1 and So Cal teams play at least 2….Would love to see the number of allowable contests in NCS increased to match SJS.

CN should be the Favorite in NCS D2…..Newman wrapped up the NBL Champ with a 2-0 win over Ukiah at Oracle Park.
They should be one of the favorites as NCS rolls around.
Also at Oracle yesterday, Freedom shut down CVC 5-0.Newman wrapped up the NBL Champ with a 2-0 win over Ukiah at Oracle Park.

Rough Game for CP, Benicia’s Pitching was fantastic!…. Both Teams had 3 Errors but CP’s Directly lead to 3 runs…. Great game between 2 terrific teams!….Also at Oracle yesterday, Freedom shut down CVC 5-0.
