Magdaleno, Tomii and Robello combined to account for 47.7% of the team鈥檚 innings pitched, while posting a 2.49 ERA over 206.0 innings of work.

Magdaleno firmly established himself as one of the best arms on the west coast, finishing the regular season ranked third nationally in hits allowed per nine innings and fourth in WHIP.

In his last three outings, Magdaleno owns a 0.35 ERA with 39 strikeouts to just two walks over 26.0 innings, giving up a run on six hits. He is the first pitcher in program history to throw multiple one-hit shutouts in a single season and the first pitcher nationally since 2017 to have at least two nine-inning, one-hit shutouts in a year.

This latest accolade highlights one of the most dominant three-game pitching stretches in program history.

鈥檚 Isaiah Magdaleno has earned several national pitcher of the week honors after putting together a masterpiece performance on May 1 against UC Riverside. The junior struck out 16 batters in a complete game, one-hit shutout in which he took a no-hitter into the ninth inning.

Magdaleno’s national honors

• Golden Spikes Award/D1Baseball National Player of the Week
• College Baseball Foundation National Pitcher of the Week
• National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association National Pitcher of the Week
• Perfect Game National Pitcher of the Week
• Baseball America National Team of the Week

Magdaleno was dominant from the opening pitch, becoming the only pitcher in the country this year to throw a complete-game shutout with at least 16 strikeouts. He punched out at least one batter in every inning, including multiple punch-outs in each of the first six frames, on his way to allowing just one hit and one walk on 107 pitches.

The right-hander was perfect through 6.1 innings before issuing a walk on a 3-2 pitch that narrowly missed the zone. He carried the no-hitter into the ninth inning before allowing his first hit on an infield chopper that bounced over the head of third baseman Tate Shimao with one out in the final frame.

Despite losing the no-hit bid with two outs to go, Magdaleno settled down and picked up a strikeout to strand the tying run at third and preserve the win, setting the tone for 东精影业‘s three-game sweep of the Highlanders.

Magdaleno’s masterpiece marked the first complete-game effort by a Rainbow Warrior pitcher since Randy Abshier on April 22, 2023. He 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.
