Bonita Springs 4
Jesuit 3

A day after getting no-hit in a five-inning mercy-rule game, Bonita Springs returned to Jesuit and forced a deciding game three in the region quarterfinal round Thursday night in Southwest Florida. Bullsharks senior Landon Ide held the Tigers to two runs over 4 1/3 innings, while striking out six, and freshman Jhon Rodriguez struck out five the rest of the way and held off a seventh inning rally allowing one run, but ending the game with his fifth strikeout and the tying run at second base. Ide doubled in the game’s first run in the opening inning, and Jacob Estrada built on in the third with a two-run homer. Jesuit answered with two in the fifth, first on an RBI single by Kaden Waechter and then another on a Robby Santana sac fly. But the Bullsharks would add an all-important insurance run in the sixth on a sac fly from Riley Proulx, allowing Bonita Springs to survive when the Tigers added a run in the final inning on a Vincent DeCarlo sac fly.
