Tigers win Matson tourney finale

By Dave CampbellRecord Correspondent

STOCKTON — Sometimes, aggressive base running doesn't work out.

Trailing by a run going into the seventh, Sacramento State's Sydney Rasmussen led off the frame with a triple. Lamari Hinton then attempted to lay down a sacrifice bunt and Pacific third baseman Cassidy Gustafson got the ball home to Rachel Sellers who got the tag down for the out. The Tigers held on to win the final game of the Libby Matson Tournament 4-3 at Bill Simoni Field. Earlier in the day the Hornets beat the Tigers 2-1 in eight innings.

"We drill a lot on quick glove work," Gustafson said.
