#UCIrvine gets a commitment from #Bakersfield transfer Nathaniel Pimentel, a long, lanky FB/SL lefty that touched 96 this year.

Mercer missing the field is bad for college baseball.

If a mid-major can win 44 games, finish top 30 in RPI, rank among the national leaders in homers and still miss, what exactly is the path supposed to be outside the power conferences?

UC Irvine reinstated their program in 2002. A lot of “major” programs wish they could have this much success.

Cody Kruis (‘26) out of Edison HS had a day at the plate racking up 3 hits, 2 doubles and cashed in 3 RBI. The @PG_Uncommitted outfielder hit .390 w/ 30 hits, 10 doubles, 18 RBI & 1 HR in his senior campaign. #PGHS

DOWN GO TO THE TROJANS ‼️

Two shutout innings by Manning, a strong defense, and a timely offense secured the upset win over #21 USC.

SWEEP SWEEP HOORAY! 🧹 🎉

A strong 7-inning start from Finnegan Wall sets the tone as the ’Eaters complete the series sweep over the Aggies. Gaz and Felsch led the lineup with two hits each, and the offense keeps the pressure on all game long.

Anteaters do it again
Your game-winning “hit” was this HBP as @UCIbsb scored 5 in the 8th to beat Oregon 8-6. Good luck dealing with these rascals. ‘Eaters are 2-0 here in Vegas.
