Granada beat De La Salle off Warner’s walk-off bunt to remain undefeated to start the year.
Granada’s Parker Warner hits the game winning walk-off bunt against De La Salle in the 7th inning of their game at Granada High School in Livermore, Calif., on Friday, March 15, 2024. Granada defeated De La Salle 5-4. The Stanford-bound pitcher hit three batters, allowed four hits and gave up two runs in 4 1-3 innings. But the shaky start didn’t stop Warner from being the hero of the game when it mattered most.
Granada first baseman Riley Winchell batted 1 for 3 with three RBIs and hit his first home run of the season. Warner totaled two hits in three attempts. In the bottom third, Winchell shifted the momentum with a two-run homer to right field that brought home Warner and gave Granada a 2-1 advantage.

Granada defeated De La Salle 5-4.
The win was just the third time Granada has beaten De La Salle in the last seven seasons. Willis said playing competitive games like Friday’s is only going to help Granada in the long run. “Alec is going to see the doctor on Monday,” Jeans said. “Hopefully, he’ll start to do stuff maybe seven to 10 days after the visit. Spangler was out with a hamstring injury. We’re going to be careful with those guys. Those guys have futures and to win a high school baseball game early on in their careers isn’t a smart choice.”
