STOCKTON, Calif. \u2013\u00a0The Pacific baseball program dropped the series finale to Sacramento State by a 18-6 margin in seven innings on Sunday afternoon at Klein Family Field.<\/p>\n

The Tigers (8-10) and Hornets (7-13) ended up splitting the four-game set after Pacific took the middle two games on Friday and Saturday.<\/p>\n

Freshman Peyton Richards<\/a> came off the bench and wasted no time crushing his first career home run that drove in three Tigers.<\/p>\n

Redshirt freshman Liam Smith<\/a> (1-2) earned the start and gave up nine runs in 1.2 innings. Four more Tigers pitched in relief of Smith.<\/p>\n

The Hornets scored in every inning but the fifth inning on their way to taking the game. A seven-run second inning by Sacramento State put this one away early on.<\/p>\n

The Tigers continue their ten-game homestand on Tuesday, welcoming Winthrop to Klein Family Field with a 6 p.m. first pitch.<\/p>\n
