Air Force baseball breaks long losing streak vs. San Diego State

Published: April 22, 2011, 6:07 pm, by admin

This season hasn’t been too kind to Air Force baseball. The Falcons started pretty well, then dropped eight in a row to start Mountain West play. They did get a highlight Friday, however, thanks to sophomore left-hander Ben Bertelson.

Bertelson gave up only one run over eight innings and Air Force beat San Diego State for the first time since 2003 with a 7-3 win. That snapped a 35-game losing streak to the Aztecs. Bertelson, who had a 1-3 record this season coming into Friday’s game, gave up a run in the first inning, then held the Aztecs scoreless for the next seven innings.

Air Force is now 15-24 overall and 1-8 in conference play.

  1. AF wins second game and wins the series with SDSU…first series win since 2008. Way to go Falcons http://www.goairforcefalcons.com/sports/m-basebl/recaps/042311aaa.html

  2. Great step in the right direction. Glad it was against SDSU who’s coach wanted us to leave the conference a couple of years ago. Go figure, a Hall of Fame player and marginal coach…who looks like he swallowed his infielders…no wonder he d/n like AFA. Maybe now he’ll keep his mouth shut for awhile.
