University of Â鶹´«Ã½ at ²Ñ¨¡²Ô´Ç²¹ baseball¡¯s Isaiah Magdaleno was recognized with a Golden Spikes Award and D1 Baseball National Player of the Week honors after pitching a one-hit shutout against UC Riverside on May 1.
Magdaleno became the only pitcher in the country this year to throw a complete-game shutout with at least 16 strikeouts, and is one of only six pitchers nationally to strike out 16 or more batters in a game this year. In doing so, he became just the third pitcher in program history—and the first since 1979—to strike out at least 16 batters in a game, joining Gerald Ako and program record-holder Derek Tatsuno, who famously struck out 20.
Magdaleno also earned Big West Pitcher of the Week honors, marking his second conference pitcher of the week selection this season.
On the heels of their series sweep of UC Riverside, the Rainbow Warriors will head to UC Davis for a three-game series beginning May 8.
