Bauer faced three batters over the minimum through four innings. The native of Valencia, Calif., worked out of a one-out jam with runners in scoring position in the bottom of the fourth, recording a strikeout and inducing a groundout to finish his final fall outing. Bauer also picked up the victory for the Blue Team in Game 1 on Monday.

Sophomore Gerrit Cole notched his first save of the series, recording three strikeouts in a scoreless seventh inning.

A balanced offensive attack helped the Blue Team earn the World Series sweep. Junior Brett Krill, sophomore Tyler Rahmatulla and freshman Beau Amaral each went 2-for-3. Junior Marc Navarro and freshman Cody Regis both recorded two RBI.

The Blue Team broke open the contest with a five-run fourth inning. With two runners in scoring position, Navarro lined a two-RBI double to left-center field. After stealing third base, Navarro scored on a single by Krill through the left side of the infield. Consecutive walks issued to freshmen Cody Keefer and Matt Mosher loaded the bases. A double down the left-field line by Regis scored Krill and Keefer, making the score 5-0.

Sophomore Erik Goeddel (0-1) absorbed the loss, allowing four runs and four hits in 1.1 innings of relief.

Eight UCLA pitchers (four on each intersquad team) struck out a combined 17 batters. Gold Team starter Dan Klein notched four strikeouts in two scoreless innings. Jordan Haver (Gold Team) notched three strikeouts in 2.2 innings of relief.
