Crabtree has been one of the hottest pitchers in the state in recent weeks. He pitched an eight-hitter, giving up an unearned run in a 6-1 victory Sunday over Riverside, the state’s fourth-ranked team. He had 11 strikeouts and no walks. Crabtree, a right-hander from Savanna High, was coming off a complete-game 5-2 victory over Rancho Santiago that stopped the Dons’ 12-game winning streak. Crabtree (3-2) has 52 strikeouts and only nine walks in 47 2/3 innings. He hasn’t walked a batter in his last 18 1/3 innings.
