UCLA baseball soars
The 16-0 UCLA baseball team continues to soar up the rankings as the latest national polls were released today.
The Bruins are No. 3 in the Collegiate Baseball poll, No. 6 in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches' Poll and No. 9 in the Baseball America Poll.
Behind ace starting pitchers Gerrit Cole and Trevor Bauer, UCLA leads the Pac-10 in ERA (2.06), strikeouts (203) and batting average against (.190).
But it's not all pitching.
The Bruins are second in the Pac-10 in batting at .363 and lead the conference with 22 home runs.
Tuesday, they will try to make it 17 straight with a win over UCSB.
keep up the intensity Bruins, we need a baseball NC trophy for the Hall of Fame to round out the collection
Could you add UCLA baseball links on your blog like you have for Bruin football and basketball? I'm tracking baseball no that the hoops season is over.
Chuck, go to twitter.com/RyeUCLAbaseball. His twitter page links you to everything that anyone writes about the team, has game updates and some other cool stuff. You can also check BruinsNation, which has the only baseball coverage out there and it's good coverage that's smart because it's one guy who knows his stuff instead of that crew's work with other stuff.
