Signal Hill Oilers Finish 2020 Season

By Dave Sobieraj 07/23/2020, 4:45pm PDT

The Signal Hill Oilers are done for the 2020 season, but will return in 2021. After the California governor issued more restrictions due to Covid in Anaheim, Brookhurst Park was closed, which forced Signal Hill to end their season.

Some of the key players from this season were William Grimm (Loyola Marymount), Sammy Diaz (Redlands) and Cameron Kundig (Redlands).

Grimm hit .400 for the season. Diaz hit .600. Kundig was named the pitcher of the week in the first week of the season. The sophomore twirled 10.1 innings, only allowing one earned run, while striking out 12.

The Oilers will be back in 2021, and are hungry to get back on the diamond.
