SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. -- Freshman right-hander Drew Thorpe struck out 13, two shy of Cal Poly's Division I record, and first baseman Tate Samuelson singled three times, driving in two runs, as Cal Poly blanked BYU 10-0 in the first game of a non-conference baseball doubleheader Saturday afternoon at Baggett Stadium.
Myles Emmerson, Bradlee Beesley, Nick Marinconz, Nick DiCarlo and Cole Cabrera each added two hits as Cal Poly produced a season-high 16-hit offensive attack.
Cal Poly improves to 3-4 for the year while BYU is 4-3.
Cal Poly scored a run in the fourth and broke the game open with three in the sixth, one on Cole Cabrera's first career home run in the seventh and five in the eighth.
Thorpe (1-0) (pictured above) pitched eight scoreless innings, throwing 112 pitches, scattering four hits with one walk. Kyle Scott retired BYU in order in the ninth.
Second game of the doubleheader begins at 4:15 p.m. with junior right-hander Dylan Villalobos to start on the mound for Cal Poly.
