Jun 14, 2025; Omaha, Neb, USA; UCLA Bruins left fielder Dean West (36) hit a RBI single against the Murray State Racers during the second inning at Charles Schwab Field. Mandatory Credit: Steven Branscombe-Imagn Images AJ Salgado’s two-run double capped a four-run fourth inning to give No. 15 UCLA the cushion it needed to hold off Murray State, 6-4, Saturday at the Men’s College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska.
After promising first and second innings resulted in just one run each, UCLA (1-0) broke through in the pivotal fourth. Phoenix Call and Dean West singled, then Roch Cholowsky laid down a successful sacrifice bunt to score Call.
Roman Martin’s two-out RBI single preceded Salgado’s key double, giving the Bruins a 6-0 lead over the Racers.
Murray State (0-1) avoided early threats, escaping a bases-loaded, no-outs first inning giving up only one run. In the second, Dean West drove in Cashel Dugger with no outs, but West was caught returning to first after trying for two. The tag helped the Racers momentarily avoid further damage.
The Racers scored runs in the fifth and sixth on Carson Garner and Dan Tauken RBIs, and Dylan Zentko came on in relief to hold UCLA scoreless for 2 2/3 innings.
Jonathan Hogart, who went 3-for-5, reached third in the seventh but Murray State could not drive him home. The Racers cut the deficit to two runs with a pair scored on August Souza in the eighth, but Murray State came no closer.
Easton Hawk sat down the Racers in order in the ninth, earning the save and sending the Bruins to a Monday matchup with the winner of Saturday’s No. 3 Arkansas-No. 6 LSU game. Murray State draws the Arkansas-LSU loser in a Monday elimination game matinee.

Is the Chiefs’ Slow Start Just a Blip or a Sign of the End of Their Dominance?
<!--> [--> Ben Arthur NFL Reporter <!--> --> All the Chiefs’ losses in their disappointing start to 2025 have followed a similar blueprint: an inability to finish at the critical moments of games. In the season opener, against the Chargers in Brazil, Kansas City’s defense couldn’t get a stop on L.A.’s final drive, allowing its division rival to run out the clock. In Week 2, their Super Bowl rematch with the Eagles, the Chiefs blew their longest drive in the fourth quarter with a turnover. Patrick Mahomes was picked off at the goal line, where Kansas City had a chance to take the lead. And on Monday night against the Jaguars, the Chiefs broke down defensively at the end. They gave up a long completion to Brian Thomas Jr. and later fouled him at the goal line. That set up Trevor Lawrence’s […]

Aaron Judge, the Ghosts of Monument Park, and a Signature Postseason Moment
<!--> [--> Deesha Thosar MLB Writer <!--> --> NEW YORK – It was the ghosts of Monument Park.Aaron Judge struggles to take credit for the magic he creates on the baseball diamond. Ask him how he’s won two MVP awards, and he’ll praise the Yankees for preparing him since the day he was drafted into the organization. Ask him how he set the American League record for most home runs in a single season, and he’ll point to his teammates for giving him opportunities to hit.So when he was asked how he kept the ball fair off his bat in the fourth inning of Game 3 of the ALDS, Judge credited the spirits of former Yankees greats for arguably the most memorable, and most important, home run of his career."You just never know with the wind, if it's going to […]
