CSU Bakersfield Rallies in the Eighth to Defeat the Pilots

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. --- After the Portland Pilots had taken a late lead, the CSU Bakersfield Roadrunners scored three in the bottom of the eighth to escape with a 7-5 win in the finale of the four-game series on Saturday at Hardt Field. Portland freshman Chris Arpan went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored during the loss.

And it was Arpan who led off the top of the eighth inning with a single and the score tied 4-4. He would move over to third on a double by Mike Hicks before Beau Brundage gave the Pilots (1-6) the lead with a sacrifice fly ball to left field.
