The Wildcats couldn't score and allowed up four home runs as the Golden Bears cruised to a win.
EVANSTON -- Reed Mason, whose senior season has exceeded expectations in every way, struggled mightily in his final home start for Northwestern as he gave up five runs (four earned) in four innings to California in a 16-0 blowout loss on Saturday's Senior Day. Cal scored at least once in every inning, off five different Northwestern pitchers.
It was the team's worst loss since March 25th of last season, when the Wildcats lost 17-1 to St. Mary's. Mason actually got the start in that game too, letting up four runs (one earned) in two innings.
