Finn Starzyk, a 6-foot-6 junior pitcher for LACES, used to do diaper commercials when he was 4. He was quite content on Saturday morning to be pitching in the City Section Division II championship game against Arleta at Dodger Stadium. "I realize we're playing at Dodger Stadium and that's something special, but it's still 60 feet, 6 inches to the mound," he said. Durrell, a sophomore, came in hitting .246 but played as if he were a regular at Dodger Stadium. LACES (17-10) has won four City titles in the last five years and won its first Division II title.
