LOS ANGELES – Greg Fuchs' first career home run in the third inning served as the game winner as Oregon State defeated UCLA, 5-3, in the series finale Sunday at Jackie Robinson Stadium.
Fuchs drilled a 1-2 pitch from UCLA starter Jesse Bergin over the right field fence for a solo shot, and sending the Beavers to their 29th win of the season and 11th in Pac-12 Conference play. The sophomore's home run highlighted a three-hit day for the Gig Harbor, Wash., native, who also drove in a run on a single in the first and singled again in the seventh.
