Stags Baseball Takes Two to Complete Series Sweep of Pomona-Pitzer

AZUSA, Calif. - Bryce Didrickson was 3-for-4 with four runs and two RBI in the opener, and Alex Henderson homered in both games, as the Claremont-Mudd-Scripps baseball team took 6-2 and 10-6 wins over Pomona-Pitzer on Saturday. 

After also defeating the Sagehens 17-4 on Friday, CMS now stands at 22-8 on the year and 12-6 in the SCIAC, while Pomona-Pitzer falls to 9-6 in league play, suffering three losses to the Stags over the weekend after coming in alone in first place. 

Tegin Maloney struck out 10 in five innings of work in the opener to get the win, allowing just four hits and one run, while Bryant Smaaladen got the save with four innings of one-hit relief. 

Henderson hit a two-run shot in the third and Didrickson hit a two-run shot in the fourth to stake CMS to a 5-0 lead. Pomona-Pitzer broke up the shutout in the fifth, and hit a solo homer in the eighth, but couldn't come any closer than four runs as the Stags clinched the series win. 

The nightcap on Saturday saw Henderson, Rider Gordon, Dillon Martin and Slader Spoor each hit home runs, as the Stags finished the three-game series with 10 round-trippers. 

Martin's solo shot cut the Pomona-Pitzer lead to 2-1 in the second, and Spoor and Henderson each hit two-run shots in the third to make the score 5-2. After the Sagehens closed to within 5-4, Gordon hit a solo homer in the fifth to make the score 6-4. 

Spoor hit a sacrifice fly for his third RBI to cap off a two-run sixth and push the lead to 8-4, and after Pomona-Pitzer closed to within 8-6, Carter Bennett hit a two-run single in the seventh to make the final 10-6. 

Colin McNiven pitched out of a bases-loaded, none-out jam in the fourth to keep CMS ahead 5-4, earning the win and improve to 2-0 on the year. Aaron Herst also got out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam with just a sacrifice fly in the seventh to keep CMS in front 8-6. Brayden Thomas struck out two in a hitless eighth, and Jacob Young finished it off with a 1-2-3 ninth with two strikeouts. 

CMS will be back in action when it steps out of conference on Friday-Sunday for a four-game series at George Fox.
