LOS ANGELES – LMU Baseball fell to No. 14 UCLA, 7-2, on Tuesday night at Page Stadium. The Lions were limited to just two hits, as the Bruins pulled ahead with timely scoring and strong bullpen work.

UCLA opened the scoring with a solo home run in the second, but LMU (23-22) responded to even things up in the third. Luca Danos reached on an error, stole second, and came home on a fielder's choice grounder from Nate Savoie to make it 1-1.

The Bruins reclaimed the lead in the fourth and added insurance with runs in five of the final six innings. LMU struggled to find rhythm at the plate, recording only two hits while striking out 14 times.

Kolton Freeman broke up the Bruins' no-hit bid with a single in the seventh, and Joe Reid provided a highlight in the ninth with a triple off the wall in right-center, scoring Ashten Wong for LMU's second run.

Tanner Warady got the start on the mound and worked three innings of one-run ball. Adam Behrens (3-1) took the loss, while nine different Lion pitchers combined to strike out seven. Johnny Casale and Austin Schroeder closed the game with 1.2 innings of one-hit relief.

The Lions return to West Coast Conference play this weekend, hosting Gonzaga in a three game series.
