Miller Leads Tigers Past Cabrillo With Strong Start
Earl Miller, returning from basketball, earned the win for San Luis Obispo as Cabrillo was edged 8 1. Miller allowed two hits and dominated with a mix of pitches. Mark Haley hit a towering homer for San Luis while Kenny Clayton was drilled by a Miller fastball but avoided serious injury. Cabrillo’s pitching struggled with defensive misplays and three more San Luis runs in the fourth and fifth. Cabrillo hosts Santa Maria next, awaiting a bounce-back effort.
