Woodland Hills West scored four runs in the bottom of the sixth inning to defeat Chatsworth, 7-5, in an American Legion District 20 game at El Camino Real High on Friday.

With two out and none on in the sixth, Gregg Sheren, Chris Teich and Corey Bromberg walked. Paul Geller, who had three hits, singled in two runs and Evan Howland followed with a walk to reload the bases.
