Offense carries baseball team to conference win

The El Camino College baseball team went on the road and beat L.A. Harbor College, 17-8, on Tuesday.

The 18 hit offensive outburst was led by freshman center fielder Noah Barba who tallied six RBIs on four hits, including a grand-slam in the Warriors’ eight-run fifth inning.

“Noah was locked in at the plate today,” coach Nick Jones said. “His grand-slam was really the exclamation point on the eight-run outburst (in the fifth) today.”

Starting freshman pitcher Cassius Hamm (7-2) managed to get through seven innings, giving up four earned runs and struck out six batters.

“Cassius was really dominant early and set the tone,” Jones said. “He ran into some trouble but was able to minimize the damage and get us through seven innings “

The Warriors (21-7, 10-3) will host the second game of the series against L.A. Harbor College (11-17, 7-6) on Thursday at 2:30 p.m.
