Cal Poly Earns Huge Sweep Over Cal State Fullerton
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. – Sophomore right-hander Casey Bloomquist has won 15 games in his first two seasons as a Mustang. He earned his first complete game Saturday against a team that has won the last four Big West Conference championships.
Bloomquist (9-0) pitched a three-hit shutout with eight strikeouts as the No. 3-ranked Mustangs completed a sweep of their three-game Big West Conference series against Cal State Fullerton with a 3-0 victory before 2,614 in Baggett Stadium.
The Titans had not been swept in a three-game series since 2011 when LSU accomplished the feat. Last time Cal State Fullerton was swept in a Big West series was in 2007 when UC Riverside won all three games against the Titans en route to the conference title.
