HONOLULU — It was a tale of two different games.
Chaminade and Hawai’i-Hilo split their PacWest doubleheader Friday at Les Murakami Stadium and are currently tied at 1-1 in the regular season series.
The Silverswords (14-27 overall, 7-19 conference) won the first game of the twin bill with a 6-5 victory while the Vulcans (15-25, 8-18) snapped a nine-game losing streak with a dominant 14-0 victory in game two.
Chaminade won the first game in walk-off fashion when Ace Perry scored the winner on a wild pitch.
Freshman left fielder Aydan Lobetos led the ‘Swords at the plate going 3-for-4 with two RBIs.
UH-Hilo held leads of 3-0 after the first inning and 5-3 after the fourth before Chaminade rallied for the win.
Zac Brown (2-1) got credited for the win on the mound for the ‘Swords, pitching in relief for starter Max Patterson, who went seven innings.
Game two was a different story with the Vulcans rapping out 15 hits and 14 runs in a seven-inning contest.
UH-Hilo took control of the game in the second inning when it scored four runs, but really broke the game open with an eight-run outing in the top of the fourth.
Cody Min led the Vulcans with three hits, Alec Yamauchi drove in the most runs with three RBIs and Vance Oshiro and Kyle Casados each scored three runs to power UH-Hilo.
Aaron Davies (3-4) earned the pitching win for the Vulcans with six strikeouts in four innings of work.
UH-Hilo will wrap up its stay on O’ahu in a Sunday double-header against Hawai’i Pacific while Chaminade will travel to the Vulcans’ home next weekend to close out the regular season series between the two teams.
