Jacob Tonascia had a huge weekend at the plate, blasting three home runs and batting in nine to lead the Otters to a series win at Cal State LA. He hit .467 on the week, with a 1.133 slugging percentage as Cal State Monterey Bay won three of four against the Golden Eagles.

The senior from Hollister drove in all five runs in Cal State Monterey Bay’s 5-0 win in the series finale, and he has now reached base safely in all 14 games this season. Defensively, Tonascia handled all 24 chances from the field without an error.

Next, the Otters host Chico State for a four-game series this weekend. Friday’s first pitch is slated for 2 p.m.
