The short story: UC Davis jumped in the lead early and weathered a late indictment from the state of Sacramento. She held a 6: 5 victory in John Smith Field on Tuesday evening. The Aggies broke out for four runs in the first inning and were never slumped, although the hornets stolen down late and put the binding run in the goal position before UC Davis closed the door.


First pitch

  • UC Davis exploded for four runs in the first inn and never gave up the lead
  • Rowen Barnes decided to win from the Bullpen for UC Davis
  • The right-handed man went a shutout inside while giving up a goal, no walks and two for two goals
  • Evan Gentil led the crime and went in the first 2 towards 4
  • Riley acosta (1-for-4) added an RBI double and Nick Lehey (2-for-4) started a solo shot in the third
  • Sacramento State Sophomore Jakob Poturnak went through the hornets and ended 2: 5 with a double and two RBIs
  • With the victory, UC Davis secured the hosting rights for two out of three games in the series of the next season


How it happened

  • The aggies immediately met Acostas RBI double before Gentil's three-way explosion ended the four-run outburst
  • Leey extended the lead to 5-0 with a solo homer to the Deep Center Field in the third
  • Korey Williams' Sacrifices made it 6-0 in the fourth inning and would prove to be a particularly important insurance run for UC Davis
  • Sacramento State replied with two undeserved runs in the lower half to do it 6-2
  • The Hornets moved the deficit to 6: 5, but it was that Barnes held the aggies in front, recorded a few strikes and brought a key to the excursion to limit the damage only two runs after entering a jam without outs
  • Sacramento State put the binding run on the base, but Delaney, who had taken a 106 -mile -chm -chp -comebacker of his leg, provided him to secure the rescue

Next: From Friday, May 2, UC Davis will lead to a weekend series in the Long Beach State.
