UCI whips UCLA

Visiting UC Irvine was a 6-4 winner over the UCLA Bruins in

nonconference baseball Wednesday afternoon, keyed by a nine-hit attack

and solid pitching from starter Glenn Swanson and Jimmy Alator, who got

the win in relief when the Anteaters struck for two runs in the eighth

inning.

Jon Horwitz was 3 for 4 with an RBI and a run scored, Matt Anderson

was 2 for 4 with a run scored, and pinch hitter R.J. Brown had a two-run

double for the Anteaters.
