Baseball Posts Second-Straight Shutout, MacNichols Sets Home Run Record

SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Santa Clara received its second-straight strong pitching performance and the offense provided enough run support in Thursday's 5-0 shutout in the series opener against Sacramento State.

Russell Grant and Cole Kitchen combined to allow only three hits while striking out 15, Jake MacNichols eclipsed the school career home run record and Coleman Brigman and Austin Reyes each had two hits for the Broncos (3-5).

Jorge Bojorquez went 2-for-4 for the Hornets (5-3) who had their four-game winning streak snapped.

Kevin Haynes (0-1) suffered the loss in relief for Sacramento State.
