CSUB’s Offense Unable to Hold of UCSD's Late Game Run

SAN DIEGO, Calif. – The Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners got off to a nice lead to start the game through the first five innings, holding the UC San Diego Tritons off 4 – 0. They were unable to keep that stance heading into the sixth, with the Tritons having a late game run out scoring the `Runners by four runs. 
 
Quotes from Head Coach Jeremy Beard
  • "Matt came out and threw an excellent game for us for the first six innings. He was in charge, had a feel for all four pitches."
  • "Our bullpen let us down during the last set. Up to that point, we had played a very solid baseball game."
  • "That was a tough one to let go, we had plenty of chances to win, we came out. It was good energy, but let down in the end."
  • "We have a lot of baseball left, and we will need to play 27 hours to complete a game."
