Saving the best for last, the Hawaii baseball team surged to 13-2 victory today over UC San Diego to earn a berth in this week’s Big West Championship tournament.
On senior day before a sell-out crowd announced at 3,029, shortstop Jordan Donahue hit two home runs, including a grand slam in a six-run third inning, a double and was credited with a steal of home as the Rainbow Warriors claimed the regular-season finale at Les Murakami Stadium. The home runs were Donahue’s third and fourth of his four-season career with the ’Bows.
Sebastian Gonzalez, Freddy Rodriguez and Isaiah Magdaleno combine on a five-hitter for the ’Bows.
