Arizona State (25-14, 5-7 Pac-12) suffered its sixth consecutive conference loss on Sunday afternoon. The Sun Devils fell at the hands of No. 1 UCLA (35-1, 9-0 Pac-12) 16-5 in five innings at Farrington Stadium.
The Bruins put on an offensive show, scoring 16 runs on 15 hits against an ASU pitching staff who has had its challenges as of late.
“The worst is hopefully out of our system now, and we have to tidy some things up on the mound,” head coach Trisha Ford said. “That’s a good hitting team. They are scoring a lot of runs against a lot of teams from across the country.
