San Diego Drops Series Finale to LMU

Toreros fall 8-1 at Fowler Park on Saturday

SAN DIEGO — San Diego baseball (22-12, 9-6 WCC) jumped out to an early lead but could not hang on to secure the sweep over Loyola Marymount (12-22-1, 9-6 WCC) on Saturday afternoon, dropping a tough 8-1 decision to the Lions at Fowler Park.

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Junior catcher Caleb Ricketts got the scoring started in the bottom of the first inning with a clutch RBI double, plating sophomore infielder Kevin Sim (Torrey Pines High School) to give San Diego an early 1-0 lead.
  • LMU rallied back to tie it an inning later with a sacrifice fly, then took the lead in the top of the third with an RBI single.
  • The scored remained 2-1 until the top of the eighth, when Loyola Marymount added two runs with a pair of RBI doubles before stretching its lead to seven runs with a grand slam in the top of the ninth to create an 8-1 advantage that the Toreros would be unable to overcome as they dropped the game by the same score.
TORERO TIDBITS
  • Sophomore righty Jack Hyde (Grossmont High School) and redshirt sophomore righty James Sashin combined for three scoreless innings out of the bullpen across the game's fourth, fifth, and sixth innings.
  • Hyde allowed just one hit, struck out two and walked none in two innings of work, then Sashin worked around a hit and a walk with a strikeout to notch a run-free sixth.
  • Seven different Toreros notched a hit on the day.
UP NEXT
The Toreros will close out their home-and-home series with San Diego State with a Monday night matchup at Tony Gwynn Stadium. First pitch at SDSU is set for 6 p.m.
