There is little doubt who’s the most improved player on Crespi’s unbeaten baseball team. Senior Jackson Eisenhauer has become the ace of the staff, and his latest standout performance came in Monday’s 4-0 win over Sherman Oaks Notre Dame to begin Mission League play.
He struck out five, walked none and gave up three hits. He has a 3-0 record and has thrown 19 consecutive scoreless innings to start the season for the 6-0 Celts. He came back last season and threw 11 innings after an arm injury. This season, with better strength, he has become a standout.
