BASEBALL
In a game that started from scratch -- not in the fifth inning as a resumption from Friday's rainout, as originally announced -- No. 5 El Diamante defeated No. 7 Hanford 5-3 to remain unbeaten in the West Yosemite League. Jacob Enis, who had a no-hitter and a 6-0 lead in Friday's game, returned to earn the win.
Clovis West, ranked second in the section and fifth in the state, scored on a passed ball to break a 4-4 tie in the top of the seventh, then had reliever J.D. Salles record a game-ending strikeout with the bases loaded to preserve a 5-4 Tri-River Athletic Conference win at Clovis East.
