Toreros Demolish Dons in 17-3 Win at Fowler Park

Four home runs headlined a stunning offensive barrage for San Diego baseball on Friday night, earning the Toreros (16-19-1, 9-7 WCC) an authoritative 17-3 win over San Francisco (14-19, 5-11 WCC) at Fowler Park. USD scored a remarkable nine runs in the bottom of the first inning and never looked back, setting new season highs in both hits (17) and runs scored as it dominated the Dons to kick off a three-game West Coast Conference series. Jack Gurevitch led the charge at the plate with a pair of homers and a game-high five RBIs, while two-way player Austin Smith paced the pitching staff with five solid innings and five strikeouts on the mound to go with two RBIs of his own at the plate.
