LOS ANGELES — Will Martel stayed perfect, Devon DeRaad hit a Grand slam and the bullpen was on its game as the Occidental baseball team beat Puget Sound 10-2 in Game 2.

Oxy has won 23 of its last 24 games, including 10 in a row. The Tigers had a 14-game winning streak earlier this season.

DeRaad, Oxy's All-SCIAC and All-Region selection in 2015, continues to tear the cover off the ball. The junior from Scottsdale, Ariz. cleared the bases with his 10th home run of the season in the second inning. He finished the game 3 for 3 with five RBIs, two doubles, three runs scored and a walk, to go along with his Grand slam.

DeRaad is just three home runs away from his Oxy single season record of 13 that he set last season.
