SEASIDE, Calif. – Jessup's two-day break from the PacWest has come to an end, as a short series in Seaside wrapped up on Saturday afternoon. On a day where the Warriors managed just three hits, a split with CSUMB was not to be as Jessup leaves with a 5-1 loss.
Â
The Warriors are now 15-6 in their first Division II season, with all 21 games being against Division II opponents.
Â
Jessup's lone run came in the top of the third thanks to an RBI single from
Nick Poss that leveled the score at one. Monterey Bay countered with a run in the fifth, two in the seventh, and an insurance run in the eighth to capture the series.
Â
CSUMB's big blow was their seventh-inning runs as they came on a two-run home run to right field.
Â
The Warriors used seven pitchers in the loss. Left-hander
Loren Iwata earned the start and allowed one run over two innings. Scoreless innings out of the bullpen were recorded by
Tyler Lamperti,
Evan Williams, and
Ryan Stone.
Â
Eric Vasser is tagged with the loss after allowing one run in his lone inning in relief.
Â
The Warriors will return to the PacWest this week as they welcome Hawaii Pacific to McBean Park. The four-game series begins with a night game on Wednesday, as first pitch is scheduled for 6 p.m.
