San Jose Blanks Lancaster
Three San Jose pitchers combined on a four-hit shutout to beat Lancaster, 1-0, Thursday at the Hangar.
Lancaster starter Derek Bieniasz (0-4) yielded a home run in the top of the first inning for the game’s lone run.
Mike Glendenning (Crespi High and Pierce College) was hitless in four at bats.

The Seattle Mariners assigned middle infielder and third baseman Joshua Taylor, 22, to Lancaster, which placed first baseman Shawn McCorkle on the disabled list.
Joshua, a 57th-round draft selection by the New York Mets in 1997, was signed by the Mariners during spring training as a free agent after the Mets released him. Joshua hit .264 in 36 games last summer for Kingsport of the Appalachian League.
