Waiakea’s Quintin Torres-Costa was in midseason form Thursday at the Stanley Costales memorial baseball tournament. The Warriors’ bullpen, however, still has a few kinks to work out.
Campbell rallied for seven runs in the top of the seventh inning off three Warriors’ relievers for a 7-4 victory at Wong Stadium.
Torres-Costa, the ace left-hander for the Big Island Interscholastic Federation Division I champions, pitched six shutout innings, striking out seven and allowing only five hits, before leaving with his team leading 4-0.
The Sabers of the Oahu Interscholastic Association quickly got to Korin Medeiros in the seventh. The senior didn’t retire any of the five batters he faced, allowing a walk, a single and two hit batters to go along with sophomore Waylen Lindsey’s RBI double.
Medeiros clobbered a two-run home run during Waiakea’s three-run third inning.
Junior Austin Mariano pitched 21/3 innings to get the win.
