 The PCC men’s baseball team lost to the Seahawks of Los Angeles Harbor College in a March 8 home game at Jackie Robinson Field. The Lancers put up four runs in the game but it wasn’t enough to route Harbor who scored 16 -4, giving the Lancers their fifth straight loss. 

Harbor increased its record to 7-5 with their fifth straight win, and PCC added the loss to their meager 2-11.

            The first two innings went by scoreless before Harbor’s Nolan Sax was hit by a pitch by PCC starter Trevor Gleason in the third, starting a rally that resulted in four runs for the Seahawks.

            The struggling Gleason gave up two more runs in the fourth inning before he was pulled in favor of lefty Cory Burgard. The Seahawk’s took advantage of a fielding error by PCC second baseman Matt Chavez to score another run and Harbor batters drove in another three runs before Burgard finished up the inning.

            The Lancers finally returned the favor in the bottom of the inning with an RBI from first baseman David Halstead, in the fifth inning with a run by outfielder Anthony Martinez, and an RBI double by shortstop Tyler Dominguez in the sixth.

            Harbor added to its lead in the seventh with two RBIs on a triple from outfielder Kris Cayton, and an RBI single from infielder Anthony Villela despite a PCC pitching change for the right hander Evan Stranski

             The Lancers showed some aggressive base running in the bottom of the seventh with catcher Marco Ordaz stealing second base after being walked by Harbor left handed reliever Chad Kim. Ordaz made it all the way to third on a single by outfielder Damian Santamaria, but failed to score before Kim quieted the Lancer bats and ended the inning.

            There were signs of life in the eighth for PCC with outfielder Brandon Spicer scoring on a Halstead double, adding a run to the board. Base runners capitalized on a walk and a wild pitch by Kim, but were left stranded on second and third.

            In the ninth, Seahawk’s bats answered back and took full advantage of Lancer errors to increase their lead to twelve runs.

            The bottom of the ninth was fairly quiet for PCC with only one hit off Korean born closer Eun Sup Jung, which was a single by third basemen Francisco Cabral.
