LOS ANGELES, CA-- No. 9-ranked Long Beach State (27-13) gave up a season-high 10 runs as Loyola Marymount (16-20) split the season series with The Beach, winning 10-6 on Tuesday afternoon.

Six Dirtbags pitchers gave up 13 hits, a day the national statistics released that the Dirtbag pitching staff led the nation in ERA (1.94). It rose to 2.12 on the season.

Evan Longoria went 4-for-5 with two RBIs, while Sean Boatright extended his hit streak to 17 games with two more hits.

In a game that looked ugly early, LMU went up 4-0 after two innings, scoring all four runs (three earned) off of Dirtbag starter Cody Evans on five hits. Evans got just two outs in the second, before being relieved by Donnie Hume who pitched the next 2.0 shutout innings. The Lions then took a 7-4 lead with three runs off of Andrew Liebel in the fifth.

A two-out, two-run single by Joe Frazee gave the Lions a three-run cushion in the inning. The two teams then traded runs in the bottom of the sixth as a Matt White solo homerun off of Matt Fitts made it 8-5.

Scott Juneau gave up two more runs in the eighth, one on a solo shot by Jon Oller to make it 10-5.

The Beach had tied it at 4-4 in the fourth inning off an RBI double by Cole Jacobsen. Three runs in the third inning had cut the lead 4-3. A two-run single by Sean Boatright followed by an RBI single by Evan Longoria made it a one-run ballgame. Boatright's hit extended his streak to 17 games.

Kyle Huddy (2-2) went the first 5.0 innings for LMU, giving up five runs on seven hits, before Daniel Macias pitched the next 1.2 shutout innings. Blake Feaser pitched the final 2.1 innings, giving up a run off an RBI single from Longoria in the ninth.

The Dirtbags travel North this weekend, as does three other Southern California teams, as LBSU takes on Pacific, UC Irvine plays in Sacramento, CS Fullerton is in Davis and LMU is at San Francisco. Tomorrow's Mike Weathers Show at Cirivello's at 4115 Viking Way in Long Beach will feature Jared Hughes and Steve Hammond.
