Seeley Gem Leads Royals to 3-0 Shutout of Oaks

Atherton, CA – The No. 16 Hope International University baseball team (22-9, 10-3 GSAC) ran their winning streak to ten games as they took down the Menlo College Oaks 3-0 to open their GSAC series on Friday afternoon at Menlo High School in Atherton, CA.

Trey Seeley (5-2) picked up his fifth victory as he dazzled scattering three hits over 6 1/3 shutout innings while walking one and striking out 11. Dean Toigo led the Royals offense going 1-for-3 with an RBI.

It was a pitcher's duel from the start as Seeley struckout the side in the bottom of the first while the Royals jumped on top early as Toigo crushed a 3-2 pitch over the right field wall to put the Royals up 1-0 in the top of the second. That's all the offense Seeley and the Royals would need as he shutdown the Oaks striking out 8 of the first 9 batters he faced and didn't allow a baserunner until one out in the bottom of the fourth. Seeley then came back to get a groundout and a strikeout to end the inning.

The Oaks also held the Royals offense at bay and looked to rally their offense when Seeley departed in the top of the seventh. The Royals weren't about to allow that to happen as Boom Ward came in from the bullpen pitching 2 1/3 no hit innings while striking out three. The Royals then added to their lead in the top of the ninth as Alec Arnone ripped a one out RBI double into the right center gap to make it 2-0. Ryan Lamastra then delivered a sac fly to increase the Royals lead to 3-0. Ward continued to shutdown the Oaks in the bottom of the ninth while Steven Ordorica came in to get the final out and seal a 3-0 win.

The Royals continue their GSAC series against Menlo on Saturday, March 30th at 1:00 PM at Menlo High School in Atherton, CA weather permitting.
