Visiting UCSB won Sunday's affair at Blair Field in Long Beach but not before the Dirtbags had secured the series win by knocking off the Gauchos on Friday and Saturday.
Long Beach St won 3-0 Friday night behind their ace Andrew Liebel. After posting his first career shutout last week, Liebel repeated the feat, making quick work of the Gauchos. He struck out six and gave up just five hits.
Jason Corder launched his 13th homer of the season, a two-run bomb, after Shane Peterson singled home a run in the first.
Saturday's nightcap was spectacular. From the fireworks after the game to the offensive onslaught during it. Long Beach slugged its way to a 10-8 win.
It was a see-saw battle for the lead that featured multiple middle-inning lead changes. Brian Gump had four R.B.I's for UCSB while Espinosa and Jones each banged out three hits and drove in two runs for the Dirtbags.

players to ever hit the All-Star Break with 30+ homers and more than 90
RBI's.
