SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. – Junior right-hander DJ Mauldin scattered 10 hits over seven innings and junior third baseman Adam Buschini drove in three runs as Cal Poly upset No. 3 Rice 10-3 in the first game of a non-conference day-night baseball doubleheader Saturday afternoon before 1,448 in Baggett Stadium.
 
The win marked the first time in five tries that the Mustangs beat the Owls. Cal Poly had a lead late in all three games of a series in Houston in 2007 and was ahead 7-6 after five innings Friday night, but couldn’t hold onto any of them.
 
On Saturday, Mauldin allowed three runs with one walk and four strikeouts for the victory and Cal Poly put together a 13-hit offensive attack, scoring at least two runs in each of the first four innings for a 9-1 advantage and coasting to the win.
 
Buschini knocked in a run with a sacrifice fly in the first inning, laid down a perfect safety squeeze bunt for another RBI in the second frame and doubled in another run in the eighth inning for his three-RBI total.
 
Sophomore designated hitter D.J. Gentile produced three hits for the Mustangs, including a double, while junior right fielder Adam Melker, senior center fielder Ryan Lee and freshman left fielder Bobby Crocker each added two hits. Crocker, in his first collegiate start, also drove in two runs.
 
Freshman southpaw Taylor Wall, 14-1 with an 0.64 ERA as a senior in high school last spring, suffered the loss for Rice, allowing eight runs and six hits in 3 1/3 innings.
 
Designated hitter Diego Seastrunk, center fielder Steven Sultzbaugh and left fielder Michael Fuda each had two of Rice’s 12 hits. One of Seastrunk’s hits was a solo home run leading off the sixth inning.
 
The two teams play the final game of the series Saturday night at 6 p.m.
