BAKERSFIELD,
Calif—Cal Poly (30-20) scored in
five of the first seven innings as the Mustangs defeated CSU Bakersfield (20-26)
6-2 Tuesday night at Hardt Field.
CSUB held a 2-1 after three complete when the Roadrunners
got RBI's from Kevin Younger (Jr., Bakersfield, Calif., Liberty HS) and Dylan Christensen (Jr., Rancho
Santa Maragarita, Calif., Saddleback College).
The Mustangs tied the game in the fourth on Alex Michaels' second home run of
the season.
The top of the fifth saw Jimmy Allen triple home Mike Miller
to put Cal Poly ahead for good. Miller added an RBI in the sixth before the
Mustangs scored twice in the seventh for the final 6-2. The Roadrunners had
runners at second and third with one out in both the fourth and the sixth
innings, but couldn't take advantage of the opportunity.
Mitch Haniger and Michaels both recorded three hits for Cal Poly. Tyler Shryock
(So., Tehachapi, Calif.,
Desert Christian HS) and Jordie Hein (Fr., Scottsdale, Ariz.,
Chapparal HS) each charted two hits to lead the Roadrunners.
