SB | Saint Mary's Drops Home Contest to Cal
4/6/2021 5:53:00 PM | Softball
MORAGA, Calif. — A big first inning for California (13-11) was the difference maker in Tuesday's game between the Gaels and Bears as Saint Mary's fell 6-1 at Cottrell Field.
The Gaels (9-14) recorded outs against the first two batters of the game but a combination of three walks, three hits, and a catcher's interference would allow Cal to score four times in the first inning. All three hits given up by SMC starter Eileen Perez were singles.
Saint Mary's scored in the bottom of the frame thanks to an RBI double by Indya Smith but that would be the only run of the game for the Gaels. SMC totaled three hits in the contest.
Two of the team's hits came in the sixth inning leading to runners on first and second with two outs but a groundout to the Bears' pitcher would end the scoring threat.
Cal added an additional run in the fourth inning off an RBI triple and in the sixth on an error following a stolen base of second.
Kayla Scott entered in relief for SMC and threw 6.2 innings while giving up only two runs and six hits.
