Pacific's bullpen did not allow a run in 7 1/3 innings as the Boxers came from behind to defeat Lewis & Clark 9-4 Thursday in a nonconference game.

Trailing 4-0, Dawson Tokishi drew a bases loaded walk to get Pacific on the scoreboard in the bottom of the second inning. The Boxers then took advantage of two Lewis & Clark errors to score two runs in the third inning and three in the fourth to take a 6-4 lead.

Pacific added three runs in the seventh inning, which included a two-run homer to right field by Ty Yukumoto.

Governor Aufranc (1-0) earned the win on the mound, allowing two hits and three walks with six strikeouts in 3 1/3 scoreless innings of relief. Joey Harmon pitched the final two innings to finish off the Pioneers.

Yukumoto, Walker Matthews, Matt Gibbs and Davis Koester each had two hits in the victory, which was the 200th at Pacific for head coach Brian Billings.

The Boxers finished the game with 10 hits.

Next, Pacific plays at Lewis & Clark on Friday at 2:30 p.m.
