SANTA ANA, Calif. – Santa Ana baseball continued the trend of torturing its opponents' pitchers, as the Dons hung 11 runs on the Cerritos Falcons (7-3) to win their seventh straight game at Don Sneddon Field on Thursday afternoon.
Following a two run first inning for the Falcons, the Dons came back with nine over the first three innings, highlighted by a moon-shot homer from Garet Crenshaw that gave SAC the lead for good.
Starting pitcher Josh Haley earned his second win of the year with a six inning, four strikeout performance. Santa Ana's bullpen gave up another five runs in the final three innings, but the offense added a couple insurance runs to hold off the Falcons.
Santa Ana got production throughout the lineup but freshman shortstop Cedrick Perez stood out as he raised his batting average to .378 with a two hit, two RBI performance. Zack Doak, Micah Pietila-Wiggs and Derek Sims also collected two hits each on the day.
UP NEXT: The Dons, now 9-1, will face Cerritos on the road on Saturday in the last game of their two- game series. First pitch is set for 12:00 p.m.
