The 28th-ranked UC San Diego baseball team is set for its annual four-game regular-season series with California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) foe Chico State this weekend. The schedule makers have the two fierce rivals meeting in La Jolla for the second year in a row. The Tritons (13-7, 9-3 CCAA) and 20th-ranked Wildcats (6-4, 5-2 CCAA) start things off in primetime underneath the Triton Ballpark lights on Friday night, March 6, with first pitch set for 6 p.m. That opener is almost assuredly to feature a mouth-watering showdown on the mound between the last two NCBWA West Region Pitcher of the Week honorees in right-handed aces Justin Donatella (3-1, 0.36 ERA) for UCSD and All-American Luke Barker (1-0, 1.23 ERA) for the 'Cats.
The series continues with a noon doubleheader on Saturday, March 7. A seven-inning nightcap will follow approximately 30-40 minutes after a regulation nine-inning game. The single finale on getaway day Sunday is slated for 11 a.m. UCSD is currently second in one West Region poll and third in the other, while Chico State is third and tied for seventh, respectively. UCSD is 8-5 at home in 2015, with the Wildcats 5-2 outside of Chico.

THE DONNYBARK AT TRITON BALLPARK
Friday night is about as good as it gets in terms of pitching match-ups nationally in Division II baseball. Junior right-hander Justin Donatella (3-1, 0.36), the CCAA leader in both ERA and strikeouts, will look to extend his shutout streak of 23.2 innings overall and 21 complete frames to begin CCAA play (3-0), against the Wildcats' All-American senior right-hander Luke Barker (1-0, 1.23 ERA). Donatella is the reigning NCBWA West Region and CCAA Pitcher of the Week, with Barker having earned both of those distinctions just one week prior on Feb. 24. Ironically, both came after nine-inning, complete-game efforts, Donatella's a one-hit shutout, with 11 strikeouts apiece. Prior to transitioning from the closer role, Barker was the Most Valuable Player of the 2014 NCAA West Regional at Triton Ballpark. He saved all four of Chico State's victories during the tournament, including both against the Tritons. Donatella's lone appearance during the regional was also against the 'Cats, as he took a no decision on May 17 following four innings of work (5 H, 3 R, 2 BB) in a tough 6-5 loss. Donatella did, however, out-duel eventual CCAA Pitcher of the Year Nick Baker to open the regular-season series between the teams at Triton Ballpark on Feb. 14, throwing six shutout, one-hit frames (2 BB, 6 SO) in an 8-1 UCSD triumph.
THE NEW TRITON BALLPARK
Triton Ballpark on East Campus at UCSD has a brand-new look outside the foul lines in 2015. The extensive renovation was completed enough for competition to take place as scheduled with an Opening Day doubleheader on Sunday, Feb. 1. Some of the main features include a permanent grandstand to seat just over 500, a press box, new sunken dugouts, an area for food trucks, and restrooms, among several other amenities. Read details here. Arguably the crown jewel of the project, a beautiful clubhouse down the right field line, is expected to be completed by April. The first pitch at the new Triton Ballpark came from Trevor Scott, the first hit and RBI by Brandon Shirley, the first run by Tyler Howsley, and the first home run in the form of a grand slam by Brian Choi. View photo galleries from the ballpark construction here and Opening Day here.

A LOOK BACK AT LAST WEEK
UCSD went 3-2 for a second straight week last week, dropping a non-conference tilt against a Pacific West Conference foe on Tuesday night prior to completing a three-games-to-one CCAA series victory. The Tritons first lost 6-2 at then-22nd-ranked Azusa Pacific on Feb. 24. UCSD then traveled north to Hayward on the weekend to take three of four from Cal State East Bay. Justin Donatella tossed a one-hit masterpiece with 11 strikeouts on just 98 pitches in a 5-0 shutout on Friday afternoon, Feb. 27. He retired the first 14 Pioneer batters. The Tritons won 9-3 on Saturday afternoon, with the second game of the originally-scheduled doubleheader being pushed to Sunday due to inclement weather. On Sunday, UCSD rebounded from a disastrous 21-10 defeat in game one in which it was charged with 11 errors, including six in a nine-run third frame, to clinch the series with a 10-2 victory in the seven-inning finale. Michael Mann went a perfect 5-for-5 at the plate to aid in that triumph, with Troy Cruz snapping a string of back-to-back losses in his mound starts.
AROUND THE CCAA
At 9-3 in league play, UCSD is currently occupying the second position in the 11-team CCAA standings. The Tritons are effectively tied with two other teams with .750 win percentages in Cal State L.A. (6-2) and Cal Poly Pomona (3-1), and behind only unbeaten Cal State Monterey Bay, with the 2013 regular-season champion Otters off to an 8-0 start. Chico State (5-2) is in fifth. The Wildcats are missing a game, with their series finale at Cal State Stanislaus having been postponed due to weather. Another full league slate is on tap this week, beginning Thursday afternoon. Follow all of the action through the CCAA baseball scoreboard. Bookmark it here.
LEW'S STREAK OVER...
Senior second baseman Erik Lewis saw his lengthy reached-base streak snapped at 40 games going back to last season, when he went 0-for-5 during the Feb. 28 win at Cal State East Bay. Lewis had entered that game as the only Triton to reach safely in each of UCSD's first 17 games in 2015. He completed the 2014 season with a stretch of 23 games intact. The Upland product, who led the CCAA in runs scored a year ago with 56 and was second in walks (42), is currently second in walks (17) and tied for third in doubles (6).
...WHILE DONNY'S CONTINUES
Justin Donatella has thrown 23.2 straight shutout innings dating back to his second frame of the season during a 2-0 home loss to then-fifth-ranked 2014 national runner-up Colorado Mesa in his 2015 debut back on Feb. 6. He has yet to allow a single run in 21 complete frames over his three starts since, to begin CCAA play. Of the two runs Donatella has given up, both against CMU, just one was earned, for a league-best current ERA of 0.36. He also leads the league with his 33 strikeouts.
CRUZ OVER TO FIRST BASE
Junior All-American Troy Cruz has drawn 22 walks in 20 games this season, tops nationally in the NCAA Division II. He remains on pace to break former Triton standout and current first-year assistant coach Nick La Face's single-season program record of 47 bases on balls, set last year. Cruz carries a team-best on-base percentage of .532, which ranks third in the league. UCSD players take up four of the top five spots in the conference in walks, as Erik Lewis (17), Jack Larsen (14) and Michael Mann (14) follow Cruz. In fact, Lewis is second nationally after Cruz. A year ago, it was La Face, Lewis (42) and Justin Rahn (35) ahead of the CCAA pack.
DONNY DONS AWARDS FOR DOMINANT START
Justin Donatella's one-hit shutout at Cal State East Bay last Friday, Feb. 27, with a season-high 11 strikeouts on just 98 pitches, earned the junior right-hander both the NCBWA West Region and CCAA Pitcher of the Week nods, each for the first time in his career. Donatella retired the first 14 Pioneers he faced that afternoon, with the home side managing just a two-out single through the left side in the fifth inning, and a leadoff hit-by-pitch in the seventh. Donatella registered eight more outs on grounders, and the other eight on fly balls, also handling all four of his defensive chances cleanly with three assists on comebackers and one putout. Read more here.
PROGRAM FIRST FOR DONATELLA
Justin Donatella's remarkable performance in Hayward last Friday marked the first one-hit, nine-inning shutout by an individual Triton pitcher in the Division II era, since 2001. Former standouts Tim Shibuya (7.0 IP) and Elias Tuma (2.0) previously combined on a one-hit, nine-inning shutout in another defeat of Cal State East Bay, 1-0, on Feb. 19, 2011. Five Triton arms teamed up on a nine-inning one-hitter on Feb. 5, 2002, in a 3-1 victory at crosstown rival Point Loma. The only no-hitter for UCSD's Division II days came from Trevor Decker against then-top-ranked Cal State Stanislaus, a 6-0 home triumph in seven innings back on March 14, 2009.
LEAGUE-LEADING PITCHING
UCSD has the best team ERA in the CCAA, at 2.22. The Tritons also have 161 strikeouts, by far the most in the league. They have allowed 65 runs in 20 games, with 42 of them earned. The starting rotation of Justin Donatella (3-1, 0.36), Trevor Scott (3-2, 0.98), Alon Leichman (3-0, 2.18) and Troy Cruz (2-2, 2.91) all boast an ERA of under 3.00, with Donatella yet to allow a run in 21 full innings in CCAA play. Donatella paces the CCAA with 33 strikeouts, while Scott is first on the staff with 27.2 innings. Having appeared a team-best nine times, Chad Rieser (1.80 ERA) has given up just three runs and has 19 strikeouts in 15.0 frames. The senior left-hander struck out the side in order in both the sixth and seventh on Feb. 21 against Cal State Dominguez Hills. Another nice story so far this year has been fourth-year senior right-hander Dan Kolodin (2-1, 2.13), who has made five relief appearances and drawn a pair of starts. He has a team-leading two saves, and is second in both strikeouts (28) and innings (25.1). The Tritons as a team have issued only 40 walks.
TWELVE CCAA SETS WITHOUT A LOSS
With a trio of three-games-to-one victories over SF State, Cal State Dominguez Hills, and most recently at Cal State East Bay to begin the 2015 CCAA schedule, UCSD has now gone 12 straight league sets without defeat. The Tritons completed the 2014 CCAA slate without suffering a series loss, with three sweeps, two 3-1 wins, and four splits. They were last bested 3-1 at Cal State Monterey Bay to end the 2013 campaign. Having split the 2014 series with this weekend's opponent, Chico State, UCSD has not lost its regular-season four-game set with the rival Wildcats since 2007, when it dropped three of four in Chico.
YOUNG OUTFIELD
UCSD started the same outfield, from left to right, of redshirt freshman Justin Flatt, redshirt sophomore Brandon Shirley and true sophomore Jack Larsen, in each of the first 17 games this season, before true sophomore Christian Leung began two of last weekend's games at Cal State East Bay in right field, with Larsen moving back over to center, where he made all 44 of his starts as a freshman in 2014. The outfielders have combined for seven of the Tritons' 10 home runs, with Flatt and Larsen blasting three apiece. Flatt served as the leadoff hitter for the first six contests, with Shirley taking over at the top of the order for the next 11. Flatt has generated the longest hit streak by a Triton in 2015, of eight, and has the longest currently at five. He reached base safely in each of the first 12 games. Larsen, who has batted either third or fourth in the lineup, leads the CCAA with 21 RBI. Flatt, Larsen and Shirley each have a team-best six multi-hit efforts. Meanwhile, there's a reason why Leung has earned those two starts, as he is currently second in the CCAA in hitting (.429) and fourth in on-base percentage (.526).
VETERAN INFIELD
Over the first 20 games, the Tritons have generally started the same veteran infield. Just like in 2014, it's been Troy Cruz at third base, Erik Lewis at second and Michael Mann at first, with Tyler Howsley, a part-time starter at shortstop as a freshman a year ago, taking over that spot for good. The only exceptions have been at third for the four games when Cruz has been on the mound, and a pair of starts at first for Pierce College transfer Zach Friedman. Brett Levy has been behind the plate for 12 of the 20 games, with fellow fourth-year senior Brian Choi drawing a pair of starts.
POWERFUL START
The Tritons hit five home runs during their season-opening four-game series with Western Oregon, having needed 38 contests to achieve that total in 2014. Prior to the 8-3 victory in the nightcap with Western Oregon on Feb. 1, the previous time that UCSD hit three home runs in a single game was a 10-5 loss at Cal Poly Pomona on Feb. 23, 2012. The Tritons have now done it twice in 2015, launching three more long balls to open the doubleheader at Cal State East Bay on March 1. Brian Choi's grand slam in that Western Oregon contest was the first by a Triton since Justin Rahn's against CPP in the third inning of a 20-5 triumph during the NCAA West Regional in La Jolla on May 16, 2014. Having finished 2014 with 11 home runs, UCSD is already at 10 through 20 games this season.
SHUTOUTS ON SHUTOUTS
In completing back-to-back-to-back shutouts to begin its series with league rival Cal State Dominguez Hills, Feb. 19-21, UCSD achieved the feat of three straight shutouts for the first time in program history, dating back through the 1980 season. The Tritons on five previous occasions had posted two successive shutouts, most recently at home to start off the 2014 series with the Toros, on March 6 (1-0) and March 7 (7-0). UCSD now already has six shutouts in 2015, having produced seven a year ago, the program's most in a single season in the NCAA Division II era since 2001. In all that week, Triton pitching kept CSUDH scoreless for 27.2 innings.
HIT-BY-PITCH RECORD
Cal State Dominguez Hills pitchers hit UCSD batters a total of nine times during a 19-0 drubbing in game one of the Feb. 21 doubleheader in La Jolla. That constituted a Triton program record at least for the Division II era (since 2001), and likely all-time. UCSD was plunked seven times in a single game four times prior, in 2007, 2005, 2004 and 2003.
CRUZ A STAR OF THE YEAR
UCSD junior Troy Cruz was named on Jan. 14 as one of eight San Diego Hall of Champions Amateur Stars of the Year for 2014. The local product out of Chula Vista (Bonita Vista HS) was a two-time SDHOC Star of the Month during the 2014 calendar year. He helped guide UCSD to a record sixth CCAA tournament title and into the NCAA postseason, excelling as both an infielder and pitcher. Cruz was recognized at the 69th Annual Salute to the Champions on Feb. 23 at the Town and Country Convention Center. Both he and Triton head coach Eric Newman were in attendance, with Cruz addressing the crowd. Read a Triton Q&A with Cruz here.

SCHEDULE BREAKDOWN
UCSD's 2015 schedule consists of 49 regular-season games, including 28 at home within the friendly confines of Triton Ballpark. The Tritons face CCAA favorite Chico State at home for the second year in a row, with that four-game series between archrivals set for this weekend, March 6-8. UCSD wrapped up a season-opening, season-long 11-game homestand on Feb. 17. The CCAA Championship will be held in the neutral-site city of Stockton for the third year in a row, but after the previous two editions took place at Banner Island Ballpark, the four-team tournament is headed back to Klein Family Field on the campus of the University of the Pacific, May 7-10. It would be a familiar locale for the Tritons, who won their third and fourth CCAA tourney titles back-to-back at the venue when the event was held there previously in 2010 and 2011.
HEAD COACH ERIC NEWMAN
Eric Newman is in his fourth season as the UCSD head coach. The 2012 CCAA Coach of the Year has a 110-71 record (81-47 CCAA) in charge of the Tritons and 205-143 overall in his six-plus seasons as a head coach. Newman guided UCSD to the 2012 CCAA regular-season and tournament titles in his first go-around in La Jolla, and a subsequent trip to the NCAA Division II West Regional. His Tritons won a record sixth conference tourney crown last May in Stockton, to again nab the CCAA's automatic berth into the NCAA Championship. With UCSD earning the region's top seed, Triton Ballpark played host to the 2014 NCAA West Regional. Newman has now led the Tritons to two CCAA banners and two NCAA postseason appearances in his three years, as well as two 30-win campaigns. He previously went 95-72 in three seasons at the helm of Dallas Baptist University from 2005-07.
ABOUT THE WILDCATS
No. 20 Chico State (6-4, 5-2 CCAA), the nine-time and defending West Region champion, is coming off of a four-game split with another heated rival in Sonoma State last weekend. The Wildcats won 3-2 at home on Feb. 26 and 7-2 in the fourth annual Capital City Clash at Raley Field in Sacramento on Sunday. In between, they were swept by the Seawolves in a home doubleheader on Friday, 7-6 in 13 innings and 13-1 in seven. Like ace Luke Barker, junior right-hander Brad Lohse, senior shortstop Cody Slader and senior catcher Peter Miller were All-CCAA First Team selections in 2014. Lohse, the Wildcats' projected starter on the mound in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader, was also the league's Newcomer of the Year. Slader was the ABCA/Rawlings National Defensive Player of the Year. He, Barker, Peter Miller, Danny Miller, Connor Huesers and relief pitcher Robert Hook are the current 'Cats who were chosen to the 2014 NCAA West Regional All-Tournament Team in La Jolla, with Barker the MVP. Offensively, the Wildcats are currently led by junior second baseman Andrew Carrillo, a transfer from Azusa Pacific and the reigning CCAA Player of the Week. He leads the league with his .567 average. Dave Taylor is in his ninth season in charge at Chico State.
SERIES HISTORY
UCSD holds a 35-33 edge over Chico State since 2001, when the Tritons moved up to the NCAA Division II and joined the CCAA. This includes a 23-15 advantage over the last 38 meetings since 2008. UCSD is 27-26 against Chico State in regular-season league contests, 8-3 at the CCAA Championship and 0-4 in NCAA Championship play. The Tritons are 15-16 in La Jolla, 15-15 in Chico and 5-2 at neutral venues, having split the four-game sets in each of the last three years. The teams split a total of eight contests evenly at 4-4 a season ago. The CCAA set was split in La Jolla before UCSD earned a pair of wins at the conference tournament in Stockton en route to a record sixth banner. Chico State returned the favor, however, to win the West Regional at Triton Ballpark in May and advance on to Cary, N.C. The Tritons went 3-2 against the 'Cats in 2012, with the games all taking place in La Jolla. The teams split their four-game series before UCSD posted a 9-1 victory on its way to a fourth straight CCAA Championship crown. In 2005, UCSD fought all the way back after losing its tournament opener at Chico's Nettleton Stadium to Cal Poly Pomona, to win its first CCAA tourney title. Needing to beat the host Wildcats twice on the final day, the Tritons did just that, taking a pair of narrow one-run decisions, both in extra innings, 5-4 in 11 and 7-6 in 12.
