STOCKTON, Calif. – The Pacific baseball program continued its season-long eight-game homestand against Saint Mary's, dropping an 8-2 decision Friday night at Klein Family Field.

The Tigers (18-28, 6-10 WCC) scored the first two runs of the contest, but the middle innings led the Gaels (24-20, 8-8 WCC) to eventually taking the series opener.

Sophomore Braeden Schnabel smashed his first home run of the season at home and his fifth on the 2025 campaign that went 416 feet to straight away center field to give Pacific an early lead. Graduate student Kordell Brown added a two-out RBI hit that presented the Tigers with a 2-0 lead after two innings.

Fifth year John-Howard Bobo continued his hot streak in conference play, collecting three hits from the two-hole. Senior Drake Bicknell and redshirt senior JT Waldon also recorded multi-hit games at the plate.

Sophomore Regan Carter turned in his longest start of his Tiger career, going 5.0 innings and striking out a pair of Gaels.

Following the Tigers' two-run lead after the first two innings, Saint Mary's scored eight unanswered runs across the next seven innings to ultimately take game one. 

Pacific and Saint Mary's will go head-to-head in game two of the series tomorrow night with a first pitch slated for 6 p.m. PDT from Klein Family Field.
