MAVERICKS TOP TORREY PINES 4 - 2

Posted by Ruth Stoffel on May 13 2010 at 05:00PM PDT

     The Mavericks took over sole possession of first place in the Avocado League (13-1) with a 4-2 win over Torrey Pines (12-2).  Will Swanner blasted a three run home run in the top of the first inning while his brother Michael Swanner pitched 5.2 innings, allowing 2 earned runs on 7 hits, 2 walks and striking out 7 to up his pitching record for the season to 7-1.  Trent Swart finished a strong 1.1 innings, striking out 2 and allowing no runs and no hits for his first save of the year (6-0-1).

     Will Swanner's home run was his 9th of the year and included runs batted in number 33, 34, and 35.  Max MacNabb added one rbi, and Bobby Zalud and Phil Evans each had one hit and one run scored.

     The Swanner brothers are the most productive brother pitching- catching battery in the history of La Costa Canyon Baseball.  In 2002 Tyler Ryan was the Avocado League Pitcher of the year, as he had 10 wins, no losses, 2 saves and a CIF playoff win over Poway, and several games were caught by his twin brother, Matt Ryan, the back up catcher; but the combination of pitching and hitting from the Swanner Brothers has set a new standard.
