Let’s just say Palisades’ lead was ... short-lived.

Chatsworth scored six runs in the bottom of the second inning, most of the damage coming on a grand slam by Matt Moreno that chased Dolphins’ starter Buck Traweek. Chatsworth tied it, 1-1, on a RBI double by Michael Renner and took the lead when Traweek walked Casey Toven with the bases loaded.

Despite out-hitting Chatsworth, 5-4, Palisades comes to bat in the top of the third inning trailing, 6-1, in this City Section Championship Division quarterfinal.
