DAY IN SPORTS: WILD RALLY IN PVL.Byline: Daily News Camarillo High completed an improbable comeback Friday, rallying from a six-run deficit in the seventh inning to defeat host Pacifica of Oxnard 11-10 in a Pacific View League baseball game. ``Unbelievable comeback. We got some breaks and found a way to win,'' Camarillo coach Richard Jaquez said. Pacifica entered the top of the seventh with 10-4 lead. But Mike Sliger and Jeff Bricker hit back-to-back doubles, Josh Ornelaz had a pinch-hit single and Jared DeCamp reached base on an error, scoring Bricker to make the score 10-6. Camarillo capitalized on two Pacifica miscues to cut the deficit to a run, and with two outs, Corey Jones tied the game, scoring from third base on an error. Sliger followed with long fly ball to left field that was misplayed, allowing Eric Komatsu to come across with the winning run. Bricker took the mound in the bottom half of the inning and induced a flyout and struck out two to seal the victory for Camarillo (9-5, 4-2).
