HAYWARD – The Cal State Dominguez Hills baseball team split another doubleheader with 17^th-ranked San Francisco State at Cal State East Bay's Pioneer Field Sunday. The Gators held on to win game one 8-6 while the Toros took game two in similar fashion 4-3.
 
The two California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) teams ended up splitting the four-game series in which was relocated to Hayward after San Francisco's Maloney Field was ruled unplayable due to the rain during the week.
