The Santa Monica High School baseball team won a one-game playoff, 6-5, against Ocean League rival Hawthorne Friday to secure third place in the league and an automatic pl
SAMOHI — It appears that the Vikings will live to play at least one more day. Santa Monica High School’s baseball team came from behind to beat Ocean League rival Culver City 5-2 on Thursday, forcing a one-game playoff with Hawthorne today on the road at 3:15 p.
