The Long Beach City College baseball team suffered a 6-0 non-conference loss to visiting Golden West College on Thursday at Joe Hicks Memorial Field.
LBCC (3-5 overall) managed just four hits in the contest, grounded into three double plays, and committed three errors that led to three unearned runs.
Golden West (7-4-1) scored single runs in the third, fourth, sixth, and seventh innings and put up a pair of runs in the fifth.
Long Beach freshman starting pitcher Jake Angus (Pacifica HS) took the loss to fall to 0-1. He allowed just three hits and two earned runs (four runs total), but was wild as he walked two and hit three batters.
