Box Score SAN BERNARDINO — The Cal State San Bernardino Coyotes got on the Warriors pitching early as the host defeated Stanislaus State, 13-6, in the series finale at Fiscalini Field on a warm, sunny Sunday.
CSUSB scored 10 runs and faced four Stan State pitchers in the first three innings and cruised to the win to improve to 14-15 overall and 9-8 in the CCAA.
The Warriors used eight pitchers in the game and fell to 12-9 and 5-6 in the league play.
After Patrick Mulry hit a solo homer to give the Warriors a 1-0 lead in the first, the Coyotes used four hits and two hits to score four runs against starter Tyler Murphy in the first inning. Murphy, who missed his start last week, is trying to bounce back after soreness in his arm but was removed in the top of the second after walking the leadoff batter.
However, the Coyotes kept scoring. CSUSB scored five more times in the third benefiting from four walks with three hits to take charge of the game.
Mulry ended up 2-for-3 with a RBIs and scored twice. Aldo Koutsoyanopulos and Nathan Chunn each also had two hits in the 11-hit parade. The Warriors, though, stranded seven runners on base.
Ryan Rich led CSUSB with a 4-for-4 game and Dylan Lohman had three hits.
The Warriors return home to host a three-game set at home against Cal State San Marcos next weekend. Stanislaus is 9-1 on home field thus far this season.
