The key to scoring against San Fernando when David Lira is on the mound is putting the ball in play and seeing if the Tigers can play defense, and El Camino Real did that in the first inning, with the Tigers committing two errors, putting runners on first and third.

But Lira did what he does best _ he struck out Mason Novak to escape the inning. It’s 0-0 after the first inning of the City Section Division I semifinal.

Update: End of two innings, no score. Both pitchers are in control. Cardona has three strikeouts, Lira has two strikeouts. No hits. They’re pitching like All-City pitchers.
