North Bend Bulldogs Baseball 3-4 Estacada

A late rally came up just short as North Bend dropped a heartbreaker to visiting Estacada 4-3 in Saturday's non-league baseball matchup at home. The Bulldogs battled back from an early deficit but couldn't quite complete the comeback against the Eagles.

The loss drops North Bend to 2-4 on the young season as they continue to find their rhythm in what has been a competitive start to the 2026 spring campaign. Despite the defeat, the Bulldogs showed fight in keeping pace with Estacada throughout the contest, with just one run separating the teams when the final out was recorded.

The narrow margin highlights both the potential and the work still ahead for North Bend. These close non-league games serve as valuable preparation as the Bulldogs look to build momentum heading into the heart of their schedule.

North Bend will look to bounce back and even their record when they return to action this week, seeking to turn these competitive performances into victories as the season progresses.
