Still two wins away from another College World Series.
No one expected it to be easy for the University of Louisville baseball team against Cal State Fullerton. The Titans have won the NCAA championship four times — in 1979, 1984, 1995 and 2004 — and have been a consistent contender.
UofL is 0-4 against Cal State, including a Super Regional sweep in 2009, an 8-6 loss early this season and the 12-inning 3-2 loss at Jim Patterson Stadium on Saturday.
Kyle Funkhouser in control much of the way, giving up only five hits and two bases on balls through seven innings.
