Varsity loses home opener 3 - 0

The Burbank High Varsity Baseball Team lost their home opener to the Arleta Mustangs 3 to nothing last Monday night. The game had been postphoned from Saturday due to rain. Both teams played well, but the bulldog pitching had a rough second inning walking batters and giving up some hits and the Mustang's took advantage of it, scoring the three runs. It was all that they needed as the Bulldogs were not able to muster any runs. They had a couple of chances to score but hit into a double play with runners on first and third with one out. The Bulldogs also had a couple errors.

Junior Pitcher Javier Lopez threw a complete game 4-hitter with 11 K's and 1 walk 1 HBP. Junior 3rd baseman Ivan Ceja had an rbi double to give the Mustangs the lead. For the Bulldogs, Lonnie Kauppila had a double.

The Bulldogs went on to play Notre Dame on Wednesday the 10th and lost to them 16 to 8. It may be a long season for the Bulldogs, but still early in the season.
