Baseball: Mira Costa is getting some Strangelove

No, nothing is normal with this kid. No, not the way he's been hitting. In fact, he's downright Strange... as in C.J. Strange with a .541 average, 15 RBI and eight stolen bases.

Strange has seven multi-hit games in Mira Costa's 12 games this season. Thursday, Strange went three for three, including the game-winning hit, in a 7-6 victory over South Torrance. So that is what's strange at Mira Costa (9-3).

In the bigs during the 1990s, there was a utility player, Doug Strange, and back in the '60s, there was "Dr. Strangeglove" Dick Stuart.
