They blew past the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/ca\/long-beach\/cabrillo-jaguars\/baseball\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Cabrillo Jaguars<\/a> 12-6. Considering the Jackrabbits have won six games by more than five  runs this season, Wednesday&#8217;s  blowout was nothing new.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:2\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/ca\/long-beach\/long-beach-poly-jackrabbits\/athletes\/will-trunnelle\/?careerid=1t1og90rai900\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Will Trunnelle<\/a> was a  major factor while hitting and pitching. He  pitched three innings while giving up   no  earned runs off   two  hits. He has been consistent: he hasn&#8217;t  given up  more than two  hits in six consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate,  going 1-for-2 with one  stolen base and one  RBI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:3\"> In other batting news, Long Beach Poly let <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/ca\/long-beach\/long-beach-poly-jackrabbits\/athletes\/tate-hammond\/?careerid=7u2jeh52gim33\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Tate Hammond<\/a> and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/ca\/long-beach\/long-beach-poly-jackrabbits\/athletes\/caleb-safotu\/?careerid=pil933aojnv77\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Caleb Safotu<\/a> run wild. Hammond  went 3-for-4 with two  runs, one  triple,  and one  stolen base, while  Safotu  went 1-for-4 with one  home run, three  RBI,  and two  runs.
