The Valley Center Jaguars varsity baseball team was one of ten teams chosen to play in a CIF high school baseball game at Petco Park on Saturday, May 8.
The Jags took on the Ramona Bulldogs at 10 a.m., hoping to hang on to a share of first place in the Valley League. But the Bulldogs kept the Jags off the board in a 3-0 loss for Valley Center.
