No. 3 seed UCLA baseball (35-20, 19-11 Pac-12) will be participating in the first-ever Pac-12 baseball tournament in Scottsdale, Arizona, starting Wednesday.

They are bruised Bruins. But they are surging when it truly matters.
They sustained one injury after another to the best arms in their starting rotation.

Kyle Karros said he couldn’t remember a longer stretch of time in which he hasn’t shared the diamond with his brother.
The sophomore infielder for No.

In each of the opening two frames, the Bruins batted around.
The two innings saw a combined 19 hitters come to the plate, leading to a five spot in the first inning and a four spot in the second.

A high fastball with a faint hint of arm-side run barrelled toward Bryce Matthews.
The Cougar first baseman took a stride and swung at the pitch as it rose toward his shoulder level.

As late winter gave way to spring, Cody Schrier couldn’t help but smile.
With each passing month, he looked up and saw his offensive statistics steadily climbing – a trend the freshman shortstop and reigning Pac-12 Player of the Week said indicated he was more than acclimated to college ball.

LONG BEACH, Calif. — The errors had come back to haunt the Bruins.
After leading the Dirtbags by as many as three runs through six innings, an error from the Bruin infield led to a two-run frame before a misplay in the outfield in the next frame set their foes up to tie the game.

After clinching a series win in the Bay Area over the weekend, the Bruins are headed home for their longest homestand before the end of the regular season.

BERKELEY — Gage Jump’s first batter stared back at his foe on the mound.
The Bruins’ freshman left-hander wound up on a two-strike pitch, and the Golden Bears’ first baseman Nathan Martorella took a swing, launching Jump’s fastball over the right-field wall.

A pair of two-run innings in the first and second frames was the impetus for the Bruin offense.
