 The Eldorado Eagles baseball team rolled over the TLC Academy Eagles 9-8 in the opening round of the Eldorado Baseball Tournament last week but dropped the next two games to finish out of contention in the tourney.
Edward Hernandez walked to reach base for the Eagles in the first inning of the TLCA game. He then stole second. Jacob Sanchez was the next batter up and he also walked. Hernandez and Sanchez then came home when Hector Reyes belted a double. Reyes then stole third then topped that by stealing home to give the Eagles a 3-1 lead in the opening stanza.
The Warbirds added four more runs in the 3rd inning and two more in the 5th to secure the 9-8 win over TLCA.
Game two was another thing altogether as the Sonora JV pounded the Eagles 12-3.
The Warbirds had a bit more luck against the Wall JV, but still came out on the short end of a 12-8 score.
