The Lancers narrowly defeat Cerritos College on a spectacular bare-handed grab and throw by second basemen Sean Stone, which he turned into a double play to end the game, as PCC holds onto a 9-8 lead.

PCC (5-18, 3-9 in the South Coast Conference) ends a six-game losing streak in the victory against Cerritos College (7-17, 4-8 Conference).

“Our offense and defense both clicked and our true potential was shown,” said Matt Chavez, sociology. “If we can keep this up, I think we will have a shot to move past conference.”

PCCs offense finally started to click in the bottom of the fourth inning as the Lancers got five runs off of just five hits, after trailing 4-0.

The Lancers had built the lead up to 9-4, but Cerritos would not go away and rallying back in the top of the ninth, scoring four more runs.

Finally, a grounder was picked up by short stop Tyler Dominguez, which he tossed to Sean Stone who caught it bare-handed. Stone seamlessly threw it to first base in one quick movement, to beat the runner and close the door on the Falcons.

“I have to say that I’m really happy about the outcome. A [win], for me, is a good day,” said Damien Santamaria.
