SAN FRANCISCO – Senior Jake Brodt hit a three-run home run in the top of the 11th inning to break a 5-5 tie to propel Santa Clara baseball to a 12-5 win over San Francisco and a series win at Benedetti Diamond on Saturday afternoon.
Brodt (1-for-6, 2 R, 3 RBIs), who was 0-10 in the series until his at-bat in the 11th, blasted the three-run shot with Joe Becht (3-for-6, R, 2 RBIs) and Jason Dicochea (1-for-7, 2 R) on base. Becht led the inning off with a single and Dicochea reached on a fielder's choice when the Dons tried to get the lead runner on Dicochea's bunt.
