Birmingham Crowned, Verdugo Hills Shock Winner
Description
Birmingham capped off a thrilling City Open Division baseball title with a gritty 4-2 win over El Camino Real at Dodger Stadium, thanks to stellar pitching from Acuna, Soto, and closer Martinez. Meanwhile, underdogs Verdugo Hills stunned everyone by winning Division I, defeating Taft 3-1 on the strength of Anthony Velasquez’s complete game and a lockdown defense. As the Southern Section playoffs intensify, Harvard-Westlake and Notre Dame prepare for their first road playoff games. Both Birmingham and El Camino Real have opted out of the state playoffs — a trend likely to grow with next year’s state championship format. On the track, Venice’s Lawrence Kensinger obliterated a 53-year-old City Section shotput record with a jaw-dropping 65-11 throw, positioning him as a serious state title contender.
