LA JOLLA, Calif. — The San Francisco State baseball team dropped Saturday's CCAA doubleheader at No. 7 UC San Diego, 10-2 and 5-4 in seven innings.
Tritons (6-2/2-1 CCAA) scored eight unanswered runs in game one before the Gators (1-6/1-2 CCAA) plated a pair in the eighth inning.
Jackson Kritsch tripled home
Kyle Smith and came around to score on
Jack Harris' infield single.
In the seven-inning game two, the Gators got the early jump on the Tritons with first-inning homers from Kritsch and Harris. SF State took advantage of Tritons errors in the fifth and plated two more runs.
Chris Smutny and
Connor Fidone both reached on fielding errors, which allowed
Brady Dorn and Smutny to score. However, UCSD negated those two unearned runs in the bottom half of the fifth with two unearned runs of their own. In the bottom of the seventh, UC San Diego walked off on a bases-loaded fielding error.
Kritsch went 4-for-7 with his first collegiate homer. He drove in two and scored twice. The sophomore is now batting a team-best .485.
