Hannoh Seo got the ball and turned out his eighth win of the season while only giving up two hits with no runs and eight strikeouts. Eddie Rosemont came on late for the Sagehens with three innings of shutout baseball giving up just one hit.
 
Pomona-Pitzer skipped the first inning at the plate and started their record setting day in the second as Kim doubled home two runs to take an early 2-0 lead.
 
Nishimura added one in the third while Kim came back in the fourth for his first home run of the day to extend the lead to 4-0.
 
The Sagehens then came back for a seven-run fifth inning that blew the game open. An error led to the first run of the inning before Kim doubled home three and Gold tripled in two more to make it 10-0. The Sagehens ended the inning after Legg singled home the seventh run of the inning to take a commanding 11-0 lead over La Verne on their home field.
 
La Verne decided to keep throwing to Kim and he responded with his second home run of the game to extend the lead to 13-0 while Jackson Fleming scored Jakobs on a sacrifice fly and Lateef Wakil plated the 15^th run of the day with a ground out to first.
