No. 13 Anteaters Suffer Midweek Loss to LMU
April 15, 2025 | Baseball
- The only matchup between the programs playing their 93rd meeting all-time started off Loyola Marymount's way with three runs in the second inning helped by three hits including two infield singles
- The Lions added two in the third inning including a solo home run for a 5-0 lead early
- UC Irvine's offense woke up quickly with the first four hitters in the third getting a hit and cutting into the lead
- Frankie Carney extended his hit streak to 15 games to leadoff the inning, and Colin Yeaman followed right behind to put his hit streak to 20 games
- Anthony Martinez drove each of them in with a double to draw within three, and Jacob McCombs added a double to make it a 5-3 game
- Rowan Felsch hammered a double off the right field wall to make it a 5-4 ballgame, and then Will Bermudez's sacrifice fly completed the five-run inning and tie it, 5-5
- LMU grabbed the lead back with a two-run home run in the fifth inning to make it 7-5 and never look back
- The Lions scored in each of the final three innings pounding out a total of 14 hits to take the win, 15-5
- UCI's bright spot on the mound was freshman Tyler Foster making his collegiate debut.
- He got the Lions in order in the sixth and recorded outs on the first five batters he faced before allowing a two-out run
- Foster bookended his second inning of work with his first two Anteater strikeouts
