Diamond Dominance: Baseball Buzz Across Marin
Baseball fans, Saturday’s calling your name. San Marin High School in Novato will light up as the California Red Tails battle it out in a crucial doubleheader.
The first pitch is at 11 a.m. You’ll see some serious collegiate talent—maybe even a few future pros—giving it their all.
Meanwhile, Albert Park in San Rafael hosts another can’t-miss matchup. The Pacifics face Austin at 6 p.m., and the energy under the lights? It’s something else.
If you’re up for it, come root for the Pacifics and soak up the buzz of a pro game right here at home.
The Pacifics aren’t stopping there—they’re also heading over to Martinez College for a 2 p.m. game. That kind of travel and hustle says a lot about their dedication.
We’re pulling for them as they represent Marin County on the road.
There’s also a bit of a reunion story—former Branson School teammates are suiting up together again, this time for the Red Tails. It’s always cool to see old friends and rivals sharing the field, proof that Marin’s sports scene brings people together in unexpected ways.
Ace Serves and Dipsea Dreams: Beyond the Baseball Diamond
It’s not all about baseball this weekend. The Marin Championships are coming down to an all-Marin Academy tennis final, and honestly, the level of play in our local schools keeps surprising me.
Expect a showcase of skill and some tense moments—these matches have a way of drawing a crowd.
And then there’s the big one: the 115th Dipsea Race. Barry Spitz, who’s watched more Dipseas than most of us have had birthdays, already has his eye on the past two champs as favorites.
There’s just something about the Dipsea—part race, part tradition, part wild trek through the redwoods from Mill Valley to Stinson Beach. People come from all over for it, and the excitement’s building fast.

Looking beyond the immediate weekend excitement, here’s a peek at the coming week’s sports schedule. You might want to mark your calendars for Monday and Tuesday events.
This compilation covers local baseball, tennis, and the celebrated Dipsea Race. It’s meant for all Marin County sports fans.
Maybe you’ll cheer from the stands at San Marin High, Albert Park, or along the rugged Dipsea trail. There’s something for everyone—so why not get out there and support our local athletes?
