UC San Diego baseball just had one of its most telling weekends of the season. Steele Murdock set a program record with 17 strikeouts in a dominant 4-3 opening win over UC Santa Barbara — looking like the best team in the Big West. But then reality hit: they blew a late lead and lost 11-10 in extras (including a go-ahead grand slam), followed by a quiet 3-1 loss on Sunday, dropping the series. The Tritons can compete with anyone and have explosive offense + elite pitching flashes, but they’re still struggling to finish close games and close out weekends. They sit near the top of the Big West at 11-4 in conference play, yet this weekend showed exactly what separates good teams from champions. On the softball side, the Tritons are heating up with a series win over Cal Poly, powered by Malia Cherry (new Division I era home run record) and Callie Howard’s complete game shutout. Braden Surprenant from the Braden Surprenant Show on 97.3 The Fan breaks it all down and compares UCSD to the other San Diego college baseball/softball teams.
