Breaking a seven-game losing streak, the Cerritos College baseball team won with an 11-6 win against the LA Valley on Thursday in a non-conference game.
This season, the Falcons won three out of eleven games in non-conference games.
Falcons starting pitcher Jake Bell grabbed his first win of the season as he pitched seven innings with four runs and seven hits.
According to the Cerritos College baseball news, “One of the keys to the win was the hitting of the 8-9-1 batters in the lineup, as they went a combined 10-for-17 and scored four of the team’s runs.”
All the batters for the Falcons had at least a single hit, marking a season high 18 hits for the club that day.
The leading hitters for the Falcons are shortstop Chris Hefner who had four hits with a run batted in and catcher Sergio Barboza who went three for three on his at bats.
The Falcons’ first conference game will be against Long Beach City on Tuesday.
