Stanford-Pacific Baseball Game Notes (May 18, 2007)

Recap | Box Score

STANFORD
Stanford had its second-longest win streak of the season broken at three games

Stanford had a two-game win streak against Pacific snapped

Stanford's hopes of extending its consecutive string of winning seasons to 14 ended as the best the Cardinal can now finish is an even 28-28 if Stanford was to win each of its final six regular season games, which would still allow the Cardinal to avoid its first losing season since the 1993 club was 27-28 overall

Stanford recorded double digit hits for the 14th time in the last 16 games and retained its season-high team batting average of .295

Toby Gerhart had a career-high three hits and tied a career-high with two runs scored

Michael Taylor tied a career-high with three runs scored

Michael Taylor posted his 11th multiple-hit game in his last 13 contests

Stanford's two-game streak of scoring in double digit runs came to an end

Max Fearnow tied a career-high with four strikeouts

Stanford lost a night game for the 10th time in its last 11 games under the lights

The game clocked in at 3:21 to mark the 32nd time in 50 games this season the Cardinal has played for 3:00 or more

Stanford's loss dropped the Cardinal to an even 15-15 at home as Stanford still needs to win one of its final two regular season home games to avoid the first losing season at home in recorded school history and needs to win both of its home games to avoid equaling the worst home record in recorded school history when the 1964 squad was an even 13-13

The game was played in front of the largest crowd to watch a game at Sunken Diamond in 2007 with a paid crowd of 2262 on Town & Country Village Fireworks night
