Timely Hitting and Solid Bullpen Support Lead Dons Past Spartans in Series Finale

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – The University of San Francisco baseball team (5-2) earned its second consecutive series win, defeating San Jose State (3-4) 9-3 in the series finale Sunday afternoon at Benedetti Diamond.
 
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT:

  • Trailing 2-0 in the bottom of the fifth inning, San Francisco recorded six runs to jump ahead 6-2. Three straight players reached base to begin the frame as Wyatt Davis and Tino Vasell recorded singles, while Jared Lewis worked a five-pitch walk.
  • Trevor Harmon followed with an RBI single to put the Dons on the board, and Isaiah Landry was later struck by a pitch to tie the game at two.
  • TJ Rogers, Eddison Esquivel, and Brendan Burke also drove in runs during the inning as the green and gold quickly pushed the lead to four.
  • After San Jose State got within three runs, 6-3, in the top of the seventh inning, Jayden Garrison connected on a three-run home run to give the Dons a 9-3 advantage in the eighth.
  • With San Francisco leading by six runs in the ninth, Nick Bacura recorded the final two outs of the contest to clinch the series for the green and gold.
NOTABLE PERFORMANCES:
  • Harmon recorded his sixth-career multi-hit game as he went three-for-three at the plate with an RBI and a run scored.
  • Recording his first-career home run and multi-RBI game, Garrison went one-for-five at the plate with a home run and three RBI.
  • Esquivel and Davis also recorded multi-hit games, combining for four of the team's nine hits. Esquivel also added two RBI, a two-RBI single in the bottom of the fifth inning.
  • Gauge Lockhart, earning his second start of the season, pitched 4.1 innings and allowed two runs on three hits, and struck out two batters.
  • Four pitchers made an appearance out of the bullpen for the green and gold, led by Alan Gonzalez, who pitched 1.1 innings and recorded two strikeouts. Thomas Gonzales also appeared in the later innings, allowing just two baserunners in two innings.
  • As a team, the San Francisco pitching staff limited San Jose State to just two-for-10 (.200) with runners in scoring position.
