<strong>Ohlone</strong> 2010 Baseball PlayoffSophomores<br />

Review<br />

Game 1: <strong>Ohlone</strong> 13, El Camino 0<br />

Roberto Padilla pitched 6 no-hit innings with the bullpen, finishing the complete game with a one-hit shutout. Steven<br />

Ramos, Cody Foster and Zach Johnson led the way going 8 for 9 through 3 innings, scoring 8 runs and producing 6<br />

RBI’s.<br />

For the game, the trio combined for 11 hits, 8 RBI and 8 runs scored. Ramos led off the game with a double down the left<br />

field line. Jeff Johnson then batted him in on a double after a sacrifice bunt that moved him up to third. The <strong>Ohlone</strong><br />

offense scored 4 runs in the second inning, including a 2 run single by Ramos and an RBI single by Jeff Johnson. Tanner<br />

Laran, the ninth batter of the inning, was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded, which pushed the lead to 5-0 <strong>Ohlone</strong>. The<br />

third inning was more of the same from the Renegades, scoring 4 runs, with Jeff Johnson contributing to his RBI total with<br />

a 2-run homerun.<br />

The offense gave Padilla plenty of room to work with as he struck out 7 over 6 innings of no-hit baseball. Alika Pruett,<br />

Brandon Arata and George Asmus threw one inning each to complete the one-hit shut out performance.<br />

Game 2: <strong>Ohlone</strong> 11, Rio Hondo 2<br />

State Championship Game 3: <strong>Ohlone</strong> 16, San Mateo 10<br />

San Mateo struck first, scoring six on top of the third inning giving the Bulldogs a 6-0 advantage going in the bottom frame. Jeff<br />

The Renegades scored first, with 3 base hits, including an RBI single by Michael Ussery driving in Jeff Johnson, followed<br />

by a bases loaded walk to Ryan Walterhouse. Cody Foster produced the third run of the inning off a fielder’s choice<br />

giving <strong>Ohlone</strong> a 3-0 lead after 2 innings.<br />

Rio Hondo scored one run in the third and <strong>Ohlone</strong> answered in the bottom half with back-to-back solo homeruns by<br />

Zach and Jeff Johnson, extending the lead to 5-0. Steven Ramos scored Kyle Holmstrom with a single in the sixth inning<br />

with two outs extending the lead to 6-1. The <strong>Ohlone</strong> offensive pressure continued with two runs in the seventh and three<br />

in the eighth, making it 11-2 going into the ninth. Ramos, Jeff Johnson and Michael Ussery managed three hits each and<br />

contributed 5 RBI’s. <strong>Ohlone</strong> pitcher Justin Kuks (5-2) matched the performance of teammate Roberto Padilla and three<br />

relief pitchers from the opening game, as he went seven innings and surrendered just 1 run on 5 hits, struck out 7 and<br />

allowed 6 walks. George Asmus came on in relief.<br />

Johnson, the tournament’s most valuable player, led the way with a three-run homerun. This was followed by a Cody Foster<br />

single. Michael DiRocco brought the score to 6-4 heading into the fourth inning. Ryan Walterhouse drove in Kyle Holmstrom in<br />

the fourth, cutting the lead to 6-5. San Mateo extended the lead to 7-5 on the top of the sixth, and the Renegades answered<br />

back with a Michael Ussery double, DiRocco sacrificed fly and Cody Foster brought in the game-tying run with a one-out RBI<br />

single. Ramos doubled and advanced to third, Zach Johnson walked to load the bases for his brother Jeff Johnson. The fourth<br />

homerun of the tournament for Jeff Johnson was a base clearing grand slam that gave the Renegades the 11-7 advantage<br />

going into the seventh. The offense continued with Ramos leading the way defensively, taking away two potential base hits with<br />

diving catches and carrying the momentum into the bottom half of the inning. Ramos singled and used his speed to score off a<br />

pick-off throw to first base, sparking the offense to score three additional runs to make the lead 15-7. Jeff Johnson totaled 7<br />

RBI’s. Cody Foster, Tanner Laran and Ryan Walterhouse contributed 2 RBI’s each, and DiRocco added 1 RBI.<br />

Matt Fontaine found himself in a 6-0 hole early, but settled in and threw 5 innings with 5 strikeouts and 2 walks. Alika Pruett<br />

came in relief, allowing one run over two and a third innings and received his first win of the season. Roberto Padilla closed the<br />

game, throwing one and two thirds, striking out two, completing the first-ever state championship for the Renegades.<br />

The <strong>Ohlone</strong> vs. San Mateo matchup was only the second time in state championship history where two teams faced off from<br />

the north in the final game. It was also the first championship for a Bay Area team since 1977. The Renegade offense produced<br />

55 hits, 37 RBI’s and 7 homeruns over the three game span.<br />
