A blown save nearly cost the Bruins their Friday series opener.
But the bats stormed back for a walk-off victory.
On Saturday, the Bruins’ hitters stayed hot – giving the team’s pitching staff little to worry about – and the hurlers upheld their end of the bargain anyway.

The Bruins were three outs from snapping their two-game skid.
Then the Nittany Lions scored four in the top of the ninth, and suddenly, the Bruins were down one and three outs away from a season-long three-game losing streak.

Tuesday was just the Bruins’ third time losing consecutive games this season – but the reality is, the team has dropped six of its last 11.

James Hepp’s day was done after facing just three hitters Tuesday as the junior right-hander failed to record a single out.
And though the Bruins would eventually shut out the Anteaters from the second inning on, the five runs No.

The Bruins’ 25-5 start was their best since 2010.
But No. 15 UCLA baseball (29-10, 13-5 Big Ten) has since gone 4-6 – including a 1-3 performance last week against then-No.

It’s a risk putting all of your eggs into one basket – especially against a former Pac-12 rival.
And by the end of Easter Sunday, the Bruins had hatched just one win against the Ducks.

Josh Alger came in to shut the door in the Bruins’ 18-2 victory Feb. 15.
But it was probably unclear for many in the stands why sophomore catcher Blake Balsz gave the redshirt junior right-hander a long embrace – or why past and present Bruins flooded social media with words for Alger – after a routine relief appearance in an early-season blowout.
