Locals in the College World Series
The Whittier area has a couple of locals involved in this week's College World Series, both La Mirada High School alums, including Fresno State freshman Jake Johnson (left) and Stanford sophomore Adam Gaylord (right).
Johnson is a catcher for the Bulldogs, who are coming off a 17-5 rout over No. 6-seeded Rice on Sunday. The former Suburban League MVP is currently batting .222 and has only committed one error this season.
As for Gaylord, while he's seen limited action, he's only committed two errors in the field as a defensive replacement. Stanford roughed up Florida State on Saturday, 16-5.
The WAC Champion Bulldogs are back in action today against No. 2-seeded North Carolina at 4 p.m. The Pac-10 runner-up Cardinals also play today at 4 against Georgia. That game will be televised on ESPN2.
