I did a live blog from the Yorba Linda High on Friday afternoon where the Mustangs were playing Redlands East Valley in the Brea Tournament finals. Here’s how it all went down:

LIVE FROM YORBA LINDA HIGH

I have the OCVarsity mobile press row set up at Yorba Linda High where the Mustangs (4-0) are about to do battle with Redlands East Valley (5-2) for the Brea Olinda Tournament championship.

The Mustangs are led by San Diego-bound pitcher Paige Von Sprecken.

The Wildcats are led by Long Beach State-bound Alexie Johnson, LSU-bound Sahvanna Jaquish, South Dakota State-bound Ashlyn Bender and Cal State San Bernardino-bound Summer Smith.

The umps have arrived, so IT’S TIIIIIIIIIIME!!! TO PLAY BALL!!!!!!!

Bender is in the circle for REV. They are playing at Yorba Linda, but for tournament reasons the Mustangs have been designated the visiting teams, so they are up first.

Holly Fauria goes down swinging and Dana Hendry and Taylor Townsend both ground out. That’s a 1-2-3 inning for Bender.

Let’s see how YL ace Paige Von Sprecken looks. Word on the streets is PVS has game.

The REV bench breaks into a “We love our freshman” chant, so I’m assuming lead-off hitter Riley Plogger is a freshman. Von Sprecken strikes out the frosh. One down.

Lauren Acosta goes down swinging. Two down.

Alexie Johnson draws a two-out walk.

Von Sprecken strikes out Sahvanna Jaquish to end the inning.

Yorba Linda 0, Redlands East Valley 0 after one inning.
