Golden Eagles Finish Season With A Big Win

LOS ANGELES -- Cal State LA's baseball team finished its 2019 season in style with a big win that featured big contributions from the 12 seniors who were honored in pre-game ceremonies.

The Golden Eagles got home runs from Adam Gordon and Spencer Sundahl in the first three innings and went on to a 12-6 win over Cal State East Bay in a California Collegiate Athletic Association game at Reeder Field. Cal State LA (19-26, 18-23 CCAA) salvaged the final game of a four-game series with Cal State East Bay (22-24, 19-21 CCAA).

The pitching was handled beautifully by two of the 12 Golden Eagles honored before the game. Alec Daily, a graduate student at Cal State LA, went the first three innings and gave up two hits and one run before turning things over to Jackson Bond. Bond overcame a rocky fifth inning and closed out the game by blanking the Pioneers over the final three innings. In all, Bond worked a season-high six innings and picked up the victory.

Jordan Peabody had another big game at the plate for the Golden Eagles, going 3-for-6 with three RBI, while Gordon hit his team-best ninth home run of the season and Sundahl connected on his fifth. Anthony Moreno scored three runs and Zachary Grande drove in a pair of runs with a double and long sacrifice fly. All are seniors.
 
Tyler Odekirk, who led the Golden Eagles in hitting, went 2-for-6 with two runs and one RBI.

Dakota Connors went 4-for-5 with one run scored and one RBI for the Pioneers.

The two teams combined for 21 hits and left 22 runners on base in addition to the 18 runs scored, making for an entertaining afternoon of baseball.

The Pioneers held a 6-5 lead going into the bottom of the sixth, but a two-run single by Peabody highlighted a three-run rally that gave the Golden Eagles the lead for good. Cal State LA scored an unearned run in the seventh to make it 9-6 and scored three times in the eighth on a bases-loaded hit by pitch by Jordan Myrow, a sacrifice fly by Grande and a run-scoring double by Odekirk.

Before the game, the Golden Eagles honored their 12 seniors -- Angel Lerma, Alec Daily Nate Alam, Jordan Peabody, Spencer Sundahl, Nick Moisant, Anthony Moreno, Adam Gordon, Austin Nazabal, Zachary Grande, Dylan Suppan and Jackson Bond -- .as well as team manager Mitsuki Nishimoto.
