The Bears look to wrap up a sweep of the Beavers at Evans Diamond today. Cal has won the first two games by a combined total of 25-7.
Freshman standout Jones earned his ninth win of the season by throwing 7.0 innings with eight hits, four runs, two walks and two strikeouts. He had yielded three runs to the Beavers in the top of the third inning on Andrew Susac's RBI double, followed by Tyler Smith's two-run double to give OSU a 3-0 lead, and gave up another run to the Beavers in the fifth inning on Travis Andrew's RBI single.
But Jones was able to render OSU scoreless the rest of the way while Cal's offense mounted its comeback. Jones' nine wins is the most for a Bear since David Cash tallied 10 wins in 2001.
Cal came back from a 3-0 deficit with three runs in the fourth inning on sophomore center fielder Chad Bunting's sacrifice fly and sophomore right fielder Danny Oh's two-run single through the right side of the infield. After the Beavers had scored their run in the top of the fourth inning, the Bears tied the contest, 4-4, on Renda homer with one out in the bottom of the fifth.
From that point on, Cal continued to score runs, tallying four runs in the sixth inning and six runs in the seventh inning. Sophomore shortstop Marcus Semien, Renda and junior second baseman Brian Guinn had RBI singles in the sixth, and Krist notched a sacrifice fly. The big hits in the seventh inning were Guinn's two-run single to center field, a two-run RBI single by junior first baseman Mark Canha and Krist's two-run homer (team-leading ninth of the year).
Listen to the game on KALX and cheer your Bears on as they try to stay in the thick of things for the NCAA Tournament!

Crap, two straight singles to start the 4th for the Beavers. Dixon needs a ground ball.
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
Bunting and Oh start off the bottom of the 4th with two singles. Rally time!

4-2 Bears!
Semien singles to drive in a run and Booker gets hit by a pitch to load the bases for Renda!

Renda walks
Bases loaded for Guinn now – and still no outs. Canha and Krist are looming after Guinn. Time to blow it open Bears!

Let's make this interesting
If the Beavers get 4 Runs this Inning, I’ll stick around until we start sucking again.

Alright Nick
I’m going to head out. Congrats on the Sweep. Hopefully if we both make it we can meet up in Omaha.
Good Luck the rest of the way.

Still 9-3 Bears
Another 1-2-3- in the 7th! 7 straight retired for Anderson!

Bottom of the 8th, still 9-3. The only drama left is if Dixon can finish off the complete game.
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
Nope, no complete game. Matt Flemer is in to finish things off.

A much needed sweep
We needed this to bounce back from the errors filled sweep at the hands of ’Furd last week (plus losing to UC Davis). Hopefully, this is just the start to another long winning streak. Go Bears!
HUGE SWEEP
