San Marin struck first using two hits and a walk to plate three runs in the top of the first.
Sonoma got on the board in the bottom of the third as Mac Scott singled and both Nico DeTorres and Ethan Vitale reached on errors loading the bases. Scott scored when Carson Snyder grounded out to the second baseman, but that was all the Dragons could manage.
With two outs in the bottom of the fourth, Dylan Samaniego singles as did Scott. DeTorres walked loading the bases, but the Dragons couldn’t push anything across.
San Marin scored three more times in the top of the fifth on two walks, two hits and two wild pitches and took a 6-1 lead.
Needing five to tie and six to win, the Dragons tried to rally in the bottom of the seventh. Vitale and Shane O’Malley scored, but that was all the Dragons could muster in a 6-3 loss.
The loss drops the Dragons to 9-10 overall.
