Press Release

Cougar Baseball Routed by Biola
2/12/08

Box Score

It was a rough day in Biola for CSUSM baseball, as the Cougars (3-6) were defeated 17-6 by the hard-hitting Eagles (4-2).

The game got out of hand early, with Biola jumping out to a 13-0 lead in the third inning.  A huge nine-run third inning rally was capped off with a two-RBI double by Chad Pace.  On the day, ten different Biola players tallied at least one RBI.  Most of the damage came through long rallies - Biola hit just one home run on the day.

The Cougars' offense came late.  Backup catcher Mike Pena was 2-for-3 with an RBI, first baseman Jared Suwyn continued his hot hitting with a 2-for-4 day, and Louie Russo knocked a two-run homer late to bring the score to 17-6.

For the Cougar pitching staff, the lone bright spots were Auggie Richardson and Mike Raedel, each of which threw a scoreless inning.

CSUSM baseball will look to bounce back on Thursday when they go on the road to face Cal Baptist.
