Long Beach State cannot cash in on key opportunities leading to 4-3 loss to the Aztecs.
Both teams plated a run in the first inning, but the Dirtbags took a 2-1 lead in the fourth. After a Jonathon Long single started the inning, Peyton Schulze came through with a one-out RBI single through the left side to drive in Long.
Unfortunately, the Aztecs would rally for three runs in the top of the sixth to reclaim the lead. All three runs came across with two outs.
Long would notch an RBI groundout in the bottom of the sixth, but that would be the last of the scoring as Long Beach State dropped their midweek, 4-3.
It marks the Dirtbags' tenth straight loss. In that span, they have only scored more than three runs once.
Long Beach State welcomes UC Irvine to Blair Field this weekend as they kick off the Black and Blue Rivalry Series on Friday night.
