Bay Area Baseball Rankings

By Chris Jackson                                              Tuesday March 17, 2015
1. College Park (3-1)
The heavily talented Falcons suffered their first loss of the season to San Ramon Valley, but don't expect many more losses to ensue. Even though they suffered an early loss, the level of talent is too high to drop them down for now. They travel to another tough EBAL team this week as they'll go to California on Thursday.

2. Valley Christian-San Jose (7-0)
Alex Murphy had a pair of doubles and RBI's in a 7-0 victory over Leigh. The Warriors continued the undefeated record, beating Leland by a score of 5-0. Through five games, they have outscored opponents 37-2.

3. Mitty (5-1)
Mitty outscored opponents 24-7 this week, highlighted by an 11-6 victory over Leland. It also scored a 13-1 rout of Harbor.

4. Bellarmine (5-0)
John Helmers leads the team in home runs (1), RBI's (3) and doubles (3) as Bellarmine is off to a quick 4-0 start. WCAL play begins this week with contests against Valley Christian-San Jose and Mitty.

5. San Benito (7-1)
Four straight wins have it sitting at 7-1 heading into matchups with Monterey and Salinas. It already owns an 8-5 win against Serra.

6. Serra (5-1)
Christopher Apecechea tossed a complete game and allowed just one run as Serra reeled off a huge 7-1 victory over nationally ranked De La Salle. More challenging contests with Mitty, St. Francis and Valley Christian-San Jose await.

7. De La Salle (1-2)
The offense mustered all but one run in a disappointing 7-1 loss to Serra. The Spartans followed that up with their second consecutive loss, coming to St. Mary-Stockton, 5-4.

8. San Ramon Valley (3-1)
Joey Matulovich tossed a complete game shutout in a 4-0 upset over College Park. He struckout 12 Falcons hitters and allowed just one hit. Connor Doyle also had two doubles in a 6-0 victory against Washington-Fremont just two days before.

9. California (3-0)
The pitching staff has allowed one run as they're outscoring opponents 22-1 heading into a matchup against ace Joe DeMers and College Park on Thursday.

10. Amador Valley (4-0)
Steven Nice had a home run and a walkoff single in a 5-4 victory over Acalanes. AJ Curtis followed that with a two double, two RBI performance in a 15-3 trouning of Dougherty Valley. 

11. Los Gatos (7-1)
Aiden Finch had a double and a home run in an impressive 13-12 victory over ST. Francis. The offense has scored in double-digits four times and is averaging over eight runs per game.

12. St. Francis-Mountain View (2-2)
Following a loss to De La Salle, it came right back with a 4-0 victory over Menlo-Atherton. Andrew Carter had a triple and two RBI's. However, it suffered its second loss of the season, with this one coming to Los Gatos by a score of 13-12. Lots of talent still remains and the Lancers are expected to compete in the WCAL.

13. Vintage (8-1)
The pitching staff has recorded two shutouts and is allowing under two runs per game. Cal commit Jared Horn is hitting .414 with two home runs and 10 RBI's. 

14. Foothill (5-0)
Joey Lea and Brett de Geus allowed a combined six hits to escape in 1-0 fashion at Heritage. Vincent Tanisawa had the teams lone run. Joe Danckert delivered a few days later in a 5-0 shutout of James Logan, allowing three hits and striking out five.

15. Heritage (5-1)
The offense couldn't back up another stellar outing from Kevin Milam in a 1-0 loss to Foothill. Dominic Espino had a home run and four RBI's in a 10-0 rout of El Cerrito.

16. Milpitas (7-1)
With its only loss coming to Los Gatos as the two split the series, the Trojans are on fire. Christian Rodriguez leads the team with a home run and seven RBI's.

17. Livermore (5-1)
A terrific cast of starting pitchers has been vital with Cal Poly signee Thomas Triantos (2-0, 0.48 ERA) and junior Brian Martinez (3-0, 1.12 ERA). Martinez tossed his second complete game in a 7-2 victory over American, increasing the win streak to five. Another challenge awaits against Northgate on Wednesday.

18. Bishop O'Dowd (3-1)
Since a loss to Foothill, it bounced back with victories over San Marin and San Lorenzo. Leo Nierenberg struckout 11 San Marin batters in six innings.

19. Maria Carrillo (3-1)
Everyone stepped up in a 12-2 rout of Petaluma. Amidst a three game win streak, Santa Rosa and Liberty are its matchups this week.

20. Marin Carholic (3-1)
Its only loss came to Maria Carrillo in 3-1 fashion and it already owns victories over Casa Grande, Montgomery and St. Ignatius.

21. Redwood (5-1)
Redwood has won four straight with its most recent win coming to Montgomery, 8-4.

22. Palo Alto (6-1)
The offense is shining as it's averaging just below ten runs per game. Owen Plambeck leads the way with a .522 average and 15 RBI's.

23. Washington-Fremont (3-3)*
Losses to Los Gatos and San Ramon Valley don't hurt its rankings as both teams are a combined 10-2. Oregon State bound Steven Kwan is hitting .455 with three doubles, a triple and five RBI's.

24. Casa Grande (3-4)
All four losses have come to ranked opponents, including one run losses to Bellarmine, Heritage and Vintage.

25. Tamalpais (6-0)
Sitting at 6-0, Tamalpais enters the rankings and owns a victory over Acalanes.
