Yuba baseball swept by Marin
The Yuba College baseball team scored three runs in the third inning but couldn’t muster much more offense after that in a 5-3 Bay Valley Conference loss to the College of Marin on Saturday in Kentfield.
With the win, the Mariners swept the three-game series and sent the 49ers to their sixth straight loss.
Things looked good for Yuba early when Mike Shoenberger drove in Carter Cunningham with an RBI single in the top of the third. Darrel Doll and Taylor Doyle followed with RBI doubles later in the inning to give Yuba a 3-0 lead.
Doll struck out five and allowed five hits and one earned run over six innings of work on the mound, leaving the game with a 3-2 lead. However, the Mariners hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the seventh and added in insurance run in the eighth against Yuba’s bullpen to come away with the victory.
Shoenberger finished with two hits and Billy Mason doubled for the 49ers (6-17, 1-5 BVC), who will look to get back into the win column on Tuesday when they host Solano. HIGH SCHOOL
