Baseball falls behind in the 2nd
A walk and single by Cal puts runners on the corners with nobody out. The next batter grounded out to score the runner from third and Cal leads 1-0 after 2.

3-0 Cal after the 6th
I’m heading to the softball game now, but I may be able to post from my phone. I can’t get GameTracker on my phone though so if someone can update the baseball scores that’d be great.

4-0 Cal after the 7th
Rasmussen gives up a leadoff triple and loads the bases after letting him in. Lafferty comes in and gets the final two outs to get out of the jam.
Yeah I'll take over updates.
Alright the Bruins just survived a scary bases loaded situation.
Cal is only up 4-0.
Top of the 8 is starting. Bruins are getting hits and getting into scoring position, just not finishing.
In other exciting news:
Tracey Lin-Riza Zalameda doubles team advanced through the semifinals today with a blowout victory, 6-2 6-1 over Renata Kucerkova-Anastasia Petukhova of Fresno State.
The number one seeded ladies now take on the number two seed also from Fresno State, Melanie Gloria-Tinesta Rowe.
Game begins Monday at noon.
Good luck!
Softball has started
0-0, mid 1st. UCLA led off w/a walk, followed by a DP and a groundout.
Game is on ESPN2, and espn360.com for those of you w/access.
0-0 after 1 inning
I’ve got to run to the store, but likely will keep listening once I return, and will do my best to update
Awesome
Casey has been raking for 2 months now. He got the day off because we wrapped up a regional spot yesterday, but a huge hit nonetheless.

A much improved crowd here at softball
It looks a bit short of a sellout so that’s a bit disappointing, but it’s far better than the past four games.

WAY TO GO BRUINS!!!
Even though we’ve already played our ways into a regionals, it’d be nice to go into them on a win streak.

Alright.
Ended the top of the 9th with runners on 3rd and 2nd.
UCLA is up 6-4.
Three outs to a sweep of #15 Cal and more importantly, the last 7 games will be a 6-1 record, perfect in the Pac-10.
Ugh
Just 90 feet away and only 1 out. Come on, Lafferty.
Good to see them forceextras at least
With the winning run in scoring position and 1 out, could have been a loss in the 9th itself. Hope they don’t sap too much of the pen on an essentially meaningless game.
Softball
Bases loaded for the Bruins with no outs. AK47 up to bat.
Softball
Langenfeld RBI single down the left field line! 2-0!
Softball
DiSalvatore grounds into a fielder’s choice. 6-2. Runner out at home. Bases still loaded but with 2 outs.
Softball
Camuso strikes out with the bases loaded. The ladies only get 1 in despite loading the bases (second straight inning they did that).
Baseball
1-2-3 inning in the top of the 10th. Cal now coming up to bat. Still 6-6.
Baseball
UCLA loses. Satin hits a walk-off home run to lead off the bottom of the 10th for Cal.
Come on girls!
6 outs away from the WCWS.

UCLA now up 6-0 in the top of the 7th and threatening
3 so far in the top of the 7th. AK-47 hit a 2-run HR. Monica Harrison doubled in DiSalvatore.
DiSalvatore at 2nd, Camuso at 3rd. Two outs in the top of the 7th.
To the bottom of the 7th!
Herrera fouls out to end the top half of the inning. 3 more outs…
Runner at 1st, but 2 outs
Single, strike out swinging, strike out looking.
1 more out to go!
Strike 3 swinging!
UCLA wins and advances!!! 6-0 final. Jelly was fantastic.
On to Oklahoma City!!!
way to go girls!!!
