Week one of baseball in the Delta River League is over and Pleasant Grove is in first place with a 3-0 mark. Saturday, the Eagles finished a three-game sweep of Sheldon by defeating the Huskies, 4-2. Matt Stafford went the distance on the mound, throwing a five-hitter. Brandon Langan took the loss for Sheldon.
At the plate, Pleasant Grove was led by Zack Stilwell who was two-for-three.
After starting the season 8-0, Sheldon has now lost five in a row. They sit at the bottom of the DRL with a 0-3 record. This week they'll have an opportunity to bounce back with a three-game set against Ponderosa Monday, Tuesday and Thursday.
Pleasant Grove will face Oak Ridge, who went 1-2 this past week against Jesuit, in a three-game set.
In the Delta Valley Conference, Elk Grove has first place with a 3-0 mark. They play Grant in a home game Monday, then hosts Davis Tuesday in a make-up of Friday's rainout. The Blue Devils are also 3-0 in the DVC.
Franklin, now 1-2 in conference play, will be at Davis Monday in a very important game for the Wildcats.
