The Palisades Pirates, a local Under-10 travel baseball team, opened their season by sweeping a doubleheader against the Mission Viejo Halos on September 3. The Pirates won the first game 19-2 and the second game 11-0. In the first game, the Pirates pounded out 22 hits, including three each by Palisadians Jackson Kogan, Matt Douglas and Sam Cohen (who also homered). The nightcap was highlighted by triples in the third inning by Ezra Steinberg, Jed Moscot and Kogan. Pirate pitchers combined for 16 strikeouts in the two games. The staff includes Kogan, Cohen, Jed Moscot, Cameron Kao, Matt McGeagh and Zack Dufour. The Pirates hosted the San Gabriel Valley Cobras last Sunday at the Field of Dreams.
