Baseball Falls to CSUN in Game Two at Goodwin Field

FULLERTON, Calif. – Cal State Fullerton baseball dropped game two to CSUN Saturday evening at Goodwin Field by a final score of 6-4. The Titans fall to 13-22 on the year and 5-12 in Big West play. 

CSUN jumped out to an early lead, scoring four runs in the top of the third inning. The Matadors scored three of the runs on a three-run home run. 

Fullerton had a quick answer as it scored two runs in the home half of the inning to cut the deficit in half. Following a Colby Wallace leadoff single, Eli Lopez doubled to right center field to bring him home and get the Titans on the board. 

With two outs and Lopez at second base, the Titans got some help from a defensive error by CSUN that allowed Lopez to score and make it a 4-2 game. 

The Titans scored two runs in the fourth inning to tie the game at 4-4. Fullerton scored its first run of the inning on a triple to left field by Jakob Schardt that was lost in the sun, allowing Matthew Bardowell to score from first base on the play. Wallace then hit a sacrifice fly to center field to tie the game to bring home Schardt. 

CSUN took the lead in the fifth inning after scoring two runs with two outs  to take a 6-4 lead. The Matadors would hold onto the lead for the remainder of the game. 

Peyton Jones drew the loss to drop to 0-2 on the year. Jones gave up six runs on five hits in 4.2 innings pitched. Christian Rodriguez pitched the final 4.1 innings for the Titans in relief and allowed four hits while walking two and striking out three. 

Fullerton looks to avoid a series sweep in game three Sunday afternoon at Goodwin Field. First pitch is scheduled for 1:00 p.m.
