Share

Agoura High rallied for a run in the seventh inning to tie the score and scored three times in the eighth to post a 7-4 win over host Calabasas in a Frontier League baseball game Tuesday.

Agoura (8-8, 3-0 in league play), which has won six of its past seven games, tied the score, 4-4, on Sean Fitzgerald’s run-scoring single with one out in the top of the seventh.

In the eighth, Agoura’s Josh Smaler drew a one-out walk and stole second. Brian Smith was intentionally walked and Bob Kazmirski walked to load the bases. On a failed suicide squeeze, Smaler was caught in a rundown but scored on a throwing error that gave Agoura a 5-4 lead.
