Rogers' Offensive Performance Leads San Francisco to Series Sweep of Seattle U

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – The University of San Francisco baseball team (15-11, 6-0) completed the series sweep over Seattle U (6-17, 2-4) with an 8-5 victory on Sunday at Benedetti Diamond.

  • The Dons added to their lead in the following frame, recording two runs for a 4-1 advantage. Eddison Esquivel totaled an RBI single and later scored on a bases-loaded catcher's interference later in the inning.
  • The Redhawks trimmed their deficit at the top of the fourth, scored twice to get within one run, 4-3.
  • Jackson Nystrom provided the green and gold with insurance in the fifth with a two-out RBI double, and Harmon added a two-run single in the seventh for a commanding 7-3 lead.

  • Landry went two-for-four at the plate, with a double and a home run, his first as a member of the green and gold.
  • Adrian Valdez earned the start on the mound and pitched 4.0 innings, allowing just one earned run on three hits, and struck out two batters.
  • Hunter Holzemer picked up his third win of the season, pitching one frame, allowing two hits, and recording one strikeout.
