No. 5 ASU baseball suffers 'reality check' loss to Long Beach State

Arizona State baseball picked up Tuesday where it left off two days earlier, which is not a good thing.

What thin pitching ASU had after using seven hurlers Sunday in a 17-16 win over Arizona was largely ineffective in a 14-9 loss to Long Beach State.

Freshman Dom Cacchione, making his first career start, threw six balls to start the night at Phoenix Municipal Stadium, and things went downhill from there for the No. 5-ranked Sun Devils.
