Diamond 'Dogs sweep Rainbows
■ Fresno State ex¬
tends its winning
streak to 11 games
after Hawaii trip
By David Johnson
Sports Writer
This past weekend a hurricane
blew through the University of
Hawaii's Rainbow Stadium de¬
stroying everything in its wake—
ERAs, conference standings and
batting averages included. What's
worse, it's headed for the San Di¬
ego area on Tuesday and Wednes¬
day.
The hurricane was embodied in
the arms and bats of the Fresno
State baseball team (18-14,6-3) as
they swept a three-game series
against the University of Hawaii
Rainbows (18-13,5-7).
With the wins, the Bulldogs ex¬
tend their win streak to 11 games,
and overtake the Rainbows in the
Western Athletic Conference West¬
ern Division standings.
They are now tied for second,
and Tuesday and Wednesday the
Bulldogs take on the second-place
San Diego State Aztecs (19-11-2,
6-3) in a two-game series.
Against the Rainbows, the Bull¬
dog offense exploded for < 4 hits
and 35 runs. The margins of vic-
Powell
tory were im¬
pressive as
well, winning
Friday 7-4,
Saturday 11-5
and Sunday,
with their larg¬
est margin of
victory all
year, 18-3.
Leading the
way was senior shortstop Ben
Reynoso. Reynoso batted eight-for-
15 for the series, with two RBI and
seven runs scored.
The Bulldogs rode their win
streak into the islands beginning
Friday night.
The game featured the two best
pitchers on both staffs.
Fresno State ace Jeff Weaver (6-
3, 1.98 ERA) gave up four runs in
the second inning, but the Bulldogs
were able to chip their way back
into the game.
Preseason All-American Mark
Johnson (5-2,4.28 ERA) had a dif¬
ficult time containing the Bulldog
offense past the second inning.
Johnson threw a total of eight in¬
nings. He gave up 11 hits and seven
runs and struck out four.
Friday night's game was the sec¬
ond in a row that the Bulldogs had
fought their way back from an early
inning deficit, something that the
they had difficulty doing earlier in
the season.
Saturday's game proved to be
different, as the Bulldogs jumped
to a four-run first inning lead. Se¬
nior left-hander Scott Navarro (4-
0,5.90) was able to hold down the
Rainbows for the six and a third
innings he threw.
He gave up nine hits and five
runs, two of which came in the
sixth. Randy Goodrich came in to>-
earn his first save of the season.
The top of the Bulldogs order,
Reynoso, center fielder Josh
Kaitfors and catcher Matt Curtis,
performed well offensively. They
batted a combined 7-for-13, and
scored seven of the Bulldogs' 11
runs. Curtis also drove in three
RBI.
Sunday the Bulldogs walloped
the Rainbows 18-3, who were be¬
ginning a 16-game home stand
what is often considered the tough¬
est park to play in Rainbow Sta¬
dium.
The offense overshadowed a tre¬
mendous effort from Mike Powell
(3-4, 5.40), who threw his second
complete game of the season. He
had three strike outs, while giving
up four hits, three runs and only one
walk.
Powell, and the rest of the Bull¬
dog staff, hope to ride the wave of"
their win-streak into San Diego's
Charlie Smith field for tonight's 7
p.m. game.
After posting an impressive 12-
4 win over the tenth-ranked Cal
State Northridge Matadors on
March 15, the Aztecs slid for three
games.
They posted a win on Friday
against Southern Utah at home,
however, to end their losing streak.
Seven Aztec players post batting
averages above the .300 mark.
Most.notably is first baseman Lee
Travis, who is batting .367, with 38
RBI and seven home runs.
Tonight's game will decide who
takes sole possession of second
place in the WAC West.
The pitching match up will see
Brian Scott (4-4, 2.51, 9 saves),
who has seen a majority of the Az¬
tec innings at 57.1, against Bulldog
freshman Mark Parantala (2-1,
7.25, 2 saves).
We know it's
been hard to
miss the
r^changes...^
So why not come
and be part of
them?

Department continues to reach
