Long Beach: Close, But No Home Run

By Lara Boyko - June 01, 2007


Long Beach State's Shane Peterson almost got a home run the hard way -- to deep center field.

Yet despite the oohs and aahs of the crowd willing the ball to fly out over dead center field, the ball would only make it as far as the warning track where UIC's Larry Gempp Jr. was waiting to make the catch.

To add insult to injury, Long Beach State's Danny Espinosa just struck out swinging for the second time tonight.

Stay tuned, we're in the top of the seventh and UIC is holding onto their lead.
