Isaac Baez shut down one of the top hitting offenses in the NAIA in an 8-1 win for Mid-America Christian University over NAIA No. 17 Mid-America Nazarene University. The senior from Santa Maria, California allowed just one earned run and six hits to go along with two strikeouts in seven innings of work to earn the win on the mound. Baez improves to 8-1 on the year to move into a tie for second all-time in school history for wins in a single season. Baez needs just one more win to tie the school record that he set himself a season ago with the Evangels.
