HOW IT HAPPENED
  • After a one-out triple by SF State's Richie Rios in the bottom of the second, an RBI single through the left side by Jason Hare gave the Gators a 1-0 lead.
  • The Gators struck pay dirt with seven runs in the bottom of the third to go up 8-0. Riley Cleary hit a two-RBI double to left center before Rudy Aguilar hit a two-RBI single to center. With the bases juiced, a single up the middle by Nick Upstill scored two runs before a CSUSM throwing error scored a third Gator.
  • In the bottom of the fifth inning, SF State took a 10-0 lead on a Jonah Gonzales RBI single to center and an RBI double to center by Upstill.
  • The Gators tacked on another run in the bottom of the sixth as Kyler Crone scored on an RBI groundout by Hare.
  • CSUSM walked home an SF State run in the bottom of the seventh to give the Gators a 12-0 lead.
  • Hoping to break up the shutout in the bottom of the ninth, the Cougars had two on with two out, but a fly out to right closed the door and ended the game.
 
QUICK HITS
  • CSUSM drops to 3-8 (2-3 CCAA) while SF State improves to 8-3 (2-3 CCAA).
  • Gator starting pitcher Jack Higgins (2-1) pitched a complete-game shutout as he allowed just four hits on 88 pitches while striking out eight.
  • Cougar starter Dylan Wannamaker (0-2) took the loss as he threw 3.0 innings with two strikeouts while giving up eight runs (seven earned) on 10 hits, two hit-by-pitches and a walk.
  • Bahna extended his team-leading hitting streak to nine games.
  • Falling 6-0 in last Sunday's series finale at Cal State Dominguez Hills, this was CSUSM's first pair of back-to-back shutout losses since 2014 at Concordia Irvine.
  • This was the Cougars' third time to post no extra-base hits this season.
