SEASIDE — The Cal State Monterey Bay Otters hammered out 18 hits in an offensive game as the Otters defeated the Cal State Stanislaus, 14-6, in the series finale. The Otters used a lot of offense to sweep the Warriors in the conference series.

Four different Stanislaus pitchers gave up the 18-hit display by the Otters as CSUMB improved to 17-7 overall. They are now tied for first with UC San Diego at 13-3 in CCAA play.

The Warriors scattered 13 hits of their own, all of them singles. Marcus Mastrobuoni went 3-for-4 with a RBI and four different Warriors — Skippy Ferreria, Michael Chavarria, Christian Kahler and Stevie Robinson — each had two hits.

Led by A.C. Nunez, who went 3-for-5, a homer and three runs batted in, the Otters had four players each with three hits. Will Rosado had two doubles.

Trailing 9-4, the Warriors closed the gap a little with two runs in the sixth to make it 9-6 with RBIs by Kahler and Chavarria. But CSUMB plated five runs in the eighth to put the game away.

Chris Sauls got the spot-start for Stanislaus for the thin pitching staff on Sunday. He gave up five runs on seven hits in two innings. Donnie Fairchilds (2 IP, 3 runs, 4 hits) and Travis Johnston (1.2 IP, 2 hits, 1 run) threw in relief. Even Aaron Godinez, who entered the weekend with the best ERA among all CCAA relievers, had trouble against the Otters. Godinez gave up five runs on five hits in two innings. All five of the runs came in the eighth, including the Nunez 3-run homer.

In the four-game set, Monterey Bay scored 29 runs versus the Warriors' 14.

Cal State Stanislaus has lost six straight games and is now 6-15 overall and 1-10 in CCAA play.
