In the top of the 8th? Didn't understand message boards and couldn't catch video or audio.

The pitcher faked a pick off throw to 2nd and the man covering the bag and the center fielder acted as if the throw went into the outfield.. hoping to get the runner to wander off the bag.

I was hoping the baseball gods would smite them in the arse for pulling something like that. They usually do.

UCLA pitcher turned to 2nd and acted like he threw it. The 2nd baseman faked like it went into centerfield. Foster didn't fall for it.

pitcher wheeled around and faked a throw to 2nd base and the 2nd baseman dove as to act like he was diving for the ball and toa ct like the ball went into CF. They were hoping the runner from 2nd would go to 3rd where the pitcher was waiting with the ball to tag him out.

just another part of that clown arse gimmicky circus style of baseball the west coast teams play....look the ncaa created new rules and stipulations just so they could get into the cws..I would rather watch my grass grow than sit through 9 innings of ucla vs Pepperdine baseball...

Play didn't bother me. But LSU (FOster) didn't bite at all.. which was pretty awesome.

I really hope we face UCLA again.

Not Bush League, just chicken shite. Smart to try it because their "awesome closer" was pitching like hot garbage. (Still can't believe the only double play of the game gets turned right there on a 2-0 pitch... come on Raph!).

You had a force out at three bags with two down. It's not like the winning one was sitting on third and a sac fly scores him. If anything it was admitting that you were scared the best closer in the country couldn't get one more out. I am very surprised the baseball gods didn't smite them for it, especially on a 3-2 count where everyone was running. Hopefully we can pay them back in a couple of rounds.

Its a bullshite play, but on Saturday at my 10 year olds championship game the other team did it and totally nailed one of our kids on second.

Key word being 10 year old game.....
