Following Thursday night’s 14-12 slugfest, Arizona State took a little longer to truly break out the bats on Friday. But once the floodgates opened, USC could do little to stop the maroon and gold flood as the Sun Devils (17-19) paid homage to program legend Dustin Pedroia and his novelty bobblehead with a 6-2 victory over the Trojans (18-14).
After a questionable ejection and five earned runs in less than two innings last week against Stanford, Kyle Luckham returned to the mound with a vengeance against the Trojans. The right-hander punched out seven batters with an even 100 pitches to secure his fifth win of the campaign.
