The Spreckels Park Little League Minor Division Dodgers will head into the league tournament this weekend with a 13-1 record after blasting the Phillies 11-0 on May 21.

The team scored four runs in the first inning and three in the second before another four-score parade in the fourth.

Steven Rios tossed a sharp four-inning shutout and batted 2 for 3 with two runs. Jonathon Shaefer was 1 for 1 with two walks and two runs, and Darrion Kitson was 1 for 1 with two walks and a run.

“This was a great time to have a good team win,” Dodgers manager Jon Shaefer said. “We played great fundamental defense, ran the bases well and were smart at the plate.”

The team also topped the Reds 13-4. Rios earned the win with nine strikeouts, and Shaefer belted a home run and went 3 for 4 at the plate with five RBIs. Rios went 2 for 3, and Mark Vicente was 1 for 2 with two runs.
