Portland Comes up Short in 4-2 Loss to San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. -- The San Francisco Dons were too much for Portland on the day, as the Pilots lost 4-2 on Saturday.

Junior Brock Gillis (3-4) started and took the loss on the mound for Portland (29-21). The right-hander went four innings, giving up two runs, both of them earned, on two hits, allowing two walks and striking out four.

Junior Christian Cooney led the way offensively for the Pilots, going 2-for-5 in the ballgame with a home run and an RBI. Sophomore Zach Toglia put together a noteworthy day at the plate as well, going 1-for-4 with a double and an RBI.

HOW IT HAPPENED

The Pilots got the scoring started early, putting one run on the board in the top of the first inning. Portland scored twice in the inning, including one on a solo shot from Cooney. The Pilots were unable to hold the lead, as San Francisco scored four times over the remaining eight innings to grab the 4-2 win.
