Bella Nuño’s grand slam highlighted a 14-run second inning to lead Dos Pueblos to a 17-0 rout of Pacifica in a Channel League softball win Tuesday.
The home run was Nuño’s fifth in six games. She also hit a run-scoring double in the first inning to finish with five RBI.
Riley Monroe went 3-for-3 with three RBI, as the Chargers pounded out 16 hits — including six in a row to start the second inning.
Pau Avina, Mia Reveles, and Georgia Wilson each collected two hits. Katelyn Lisi led the defense with some strong plays at second base, including a diving stop in which she threw a runner out from her knees.
“We did a great job at the plate today,” Charger coach Mike Gerken said. “We were patient and took good swings. I am proud of our approach in the batter’s box. Hopefully we can carry this forward throughout league.”
The Chargers are now 2-0 in league play and 3-3 overall.
