Seahawks Ride Explosive Start to 10–5 Win Over San Bernardino Valley

Seahawks Ride Explosive Start to 10–5 Win Over San Bernardino Valley

April 17, 2025 – Wilmington, CA — The Los Angeles Harbor College baseball team came out swinging Thursday afternoon, plating five runs in the first inning and never relinquishing the lead en route to a 10–5 victory over San Bernardino Valley College.

The win showcased both offensive power and situational execution from the Seahawks, who improved their standing in the conference with a complete team performance at home.

First Inning Outburst Sets the Tone

The game opened with an offensive barrage by LA Harbor. After R. Martinez crossed the plate on an RBI single by A. Roman, the floodgates opened. With the bases loaded, I. Aguilar ripped a double to left that cleared the bags and turned into a little-league triple after an error in left field, scoring three more runs. A sacrifice fly by E. Mora capped off the five-run first, with Aguilar coming home to make it 5–0.

SBVC Rallies, But Seahawks Respond

San Bernardino Valley responded with four unanswered runs between the second and third innings, helped in part by defensive miscues. A wild pitch brought home one in the second, and three unearned runs came across in the third, including an RBI triple by J. Guzman and a single from M. Soto that made it a one-run game at 5–4.

But the Seahawks remained composed. In the bottom of the fourth, J. Unterburg’s hustle on the basepaths paid off as C. Anderson drove him in with a sacrifice fly to make it 6–4.

After SBVC added another in the sixth, LA Harbor answered once again in the bottom half. With the bases loaded, B. Luna took one for the team—literally—getting hit by a pitch to force in a run and give the Seahawks a 7–5 cushion.

Late-Game Power and Insurance

The dagger came in the seventh, when A. Roman crushed a solo home run to left field—his second RBI of the game—stretching the lead to 8–5. The Seahawks tacked on two more in the eighth. E. Brenes scored on a sacrifice fly by Luna, and C. Hernandez followed with a double to center that brought home R. Martinez for the final run of the day.

Player Highlights

  • A. Roman: The offensive spark plug, going 2-for-3 with a home run and two RBIs. His first-inning single started the scoring, and his seventh-inning homer gave the Seahawks breathing room.

  • I. Aguilar: Delivered the biggest swing of the day with a bases-clearing double that turned into a three-RBI play. He also scored on a sac fly in the first.

  • B. Luna: Collected two RBIs without recording a hit—one via a sac fly and another after being hit by a pitch with the bases loaded. A gritty performance that made a difference.

  • C. Hernandez: Consistent presence on base and contributed an RBI double late in the game to cap the scoring.

  • Pitching Staff: The staff held firm in the final three innings to prevent any chance of a comeback, showcasing depth and composure.

Looking Ahead

With momentum on their side, the Seahawks now set their sights on an upcoming matchup with Cerritos College on April 22. If Thursday’s performance is any indication, LA Harbor is finding its stride at just the right time.
