Cougars Drop Pitcher’s Duel to No. 15 UCLA

LOS ANGELES (May 13, 2022) – Washington State received an impressive start from who worked into the seventh inning, but UCLA took the series-opener 4-0 at Jackie Robinson Stadium Friday evening.

The Cougars (23-24, 9-16 Pac-12) received a first-inning single from who extended his hitting streak to 15 games, but UCLA scored four runs in the first inning and made that number stand. McMillan worked 6.1 innings and struck out three while reliever retired all five batters he faced.

Bruin starter Max Rajcic was dominant, allowing just one hit, did not walk a batter and struck out 14 in eight innings to help UCLA improve to 31-18 overall and 15-10 in conference play.
