As the UCLA baseball team retreated after yet another disappointing loss, their sense of frustration was evident.

Last weekend, the UCLA baseball team had a chance.

After a punchless and frustrating loss to Pepperdine on Tuesday, the UCLA baseball team was looking to gain some momentum heading into a crucial home stand against No. 4 Arizona State this weekend.

In one of the more dramatic, strange and exhilarating games for the UCLA baseball team, a season possibly changed.

For a 13-game baseball home stand that has been a roller coaster of a ride, it was only fitting that the final game would follow suit.
After surrendering an early 5-0 lead through the first six innings, the Bruins (20-16, 4-5 Pac-10) let UNLV (18-21, 7-8 Mountain West) back into the game, which tied the score at 7-7 in the bottom of the ninth inning.

After 21 days, 12 games and a somewhat disappointing six wins, the longest home stand of the season for the UCLA baseball team comes to an end tonight against UNLV.

Heading into the bottom of Sunday’s first inning down 2-0, it looked like the same old story for the UCLA baseball team.
The Bruins’ (19-16, 4-5 Pac-10) offense had failed them in the two previous losses to No. 10 Stanford ““ 4-1 on Friday and 6-1 on Saturday ““ and an early two-run deficit against the hot-hitting Cardinal (21-12-2, 8-4 Pac-10) seemed like a recipe for another loss.
