Tonight, in Game 7 of the Los Angeles Regional, a winner-take-all affair with a date versus Michigan in the Super Regional on the line, the UCLA Bruins baseball team (51-9) fought off a tough opponent in the Loyola Marymount Lions (34-25), winning by the score of 6-3. It wasn’t pretty and LMU gave the Bruins all that they could handle but, ultimately, UCLA got the job done. Now, UCLA will host a Super Regional this weekend, hosting the Michigan Wolverines.
UCLA got bad news before the game. Sophomore lead-off hitter Garrett Mitchell, who has been tearing it up, was unavailable to the Bruins due to illness.
