Rowen Barnes homered, doubled, and drove in five runs and Menlo-Atherton beat visiting Woodside 15-0 in a non-league baseball game Saturday.
George Zaharias and two relievers combined to toss a two-hitter for the Bears (15-5), who have won 12 in a row and thrown seven shutouts during that span.

Sean Quinton singled home Reno DiBono in the bottom of the second to start the scoring.
Owen Keep and James Roberts each drove in two runs and Jackson Williams, Ben Cohen, Tommy Eisenstat and John Quinlan also drove in runs.
Max Coupe, Ethan Bergan and Keep each added a pair of hits for M-A, which hosts Half Moon Bay in a PAL Ocean Division on Tuesday.
Barnes became the third different Bear in as many games to drive in five runs or more. Eisenstat drove in six in a win over Sequoia on Thursday and Griffin Williams had five RBIs in Tuesday’s win over the Ravens.
Zaharias allowed two hits in his four innings. He struck out six and did not walk a batter. Quinton pitched two shutout innings and Jackson Vontz finished with a perfect inning.
