UC Irvine 4, San Diego 3

SAN DIEGO — UC Irvine senior Jeff Cusick doubled in the winning run in the 12th inning in the nonconference game Tuesday at Cunningham Stadium.

Cusick, the designated hitter, went two for four with a pair of walks to extend his hitting streak to 21 games and up his team-leading total to 33 runs batted in. He is hitting .383 and also leads the team in doubles (11) and home runs (five).

The UCI bullpen made Cusick’s heroics necessary, as Matt Summers gave up two runs and Kyle Necke surrendered one in a three-run eighth inning that erased the Toreros’ 3-0 deficit.

Freshman Evan Brock pitched six shutout innings in his first collegiate start, allowing one hit, striking out five and walking two.

Senior Nick Hoover pitched two scoreless innings to earn the victory and Christian Bergman pitched the 12th to earn his first collegiate save.

No. 25-ranked UCI improved to 19-11.

USD fell to 17-15.
