Dominguez Hills Baseball Team Rallies for Victory

The Cal State Dominguez Hills baseball team, ranked 13th in NCAA Division II, scored six runs in the eighth inning to rally for a 7-3 victory over The Master’s College Wednesday afternoon at Carson.

Juan Soriano, Eric Duncan and Tom Fulkerson combined to pitch a two-hitter for the Toros (9-5).

Mustang junior pitcher Matt Davis, making his first start of the season, shut out the Toros on three hits through the first six innings. Center fielder Mike Olmos led off the top of the seventh with his first home run to end Davis’ hopes for a shutout.

Bart Jennings replaced Davis in the eighth, but Dominguez Hills chased him with four runs, highlighted by a three-run double by left fielder Corey Woinarowicz, to give the Toros a 4-2 lead.

Dominguez Hills designated hitter Ariel Martin extended his hitting streak to 14 games with a run-scoring single in the eighth. Duncan (3-1) pitched two scoreless innings of relief to earn the win. Jennings (1-1) took the loss for the Mustangs (10-4).

Dominguez Hills travels to California Collegiate Athletic Assn. rival UC Riverside on Friday for a 7 p.m. game. On Saturday, the teams will play a doubleheader at Carson.
