Coyotes big ninth beats Cal State L.A.

Minjares has big blow in 10-6 victory

    LOS ANGELES -- Senior Michael Minjares doubled in three runs and Johnnie Haas homered as Cal State San Bernardino erupted for six runs in the ninth inning Thursday to defeat Cal State L.A., 10-6, in a non-conference game at Reeder Field.
   The same two teams will play at 2 p.m. Friday at Arrowhead Credit Union Park in San Bernardino. The series finale is at 1 p.m. Saturday at ACUP. CSUSB improved to 7-2 while L.A. is 6-4.
    Trailing 6-4 entering the ninth, the Coyotes' Haas led off the inning with a homer to right field. Two Golden Eagles errors and a single by Jesus Beltran produced another run, albiet unearned. After Drew Valenzuela was hit by a pitch to load the bases, Minjares cleared the bases with a double. He then scored on a sacrifice fly by freshman catcher Chris LeFay.
    The turnaround made a winner out of Coyotes pitcher David McCarthy, who relieved starter Cheyne Hann in the seventh with the score tied at 4-4. McCarthy yielded two runs to the hosts on RBI hits by Max Moya and Christian Ramirez.
