The UCLA Bruins turned in a valiant effort behind their star pitcher, Gerrit Cole. The problem is that the gamecocks look very comfortable at the plate. Since losing the first game of the College World Series, South Carolina has reeled off 5 straight. South Carolina collected 11 of their 14 hits and six runs, four earned, in seven innings against UCLA starter Gerrit Cole (11-4). Cole had struck out 13 in eight innings in a win over TCU in his previous start, but he fanned only two Gamecocks. Now that the Bruins have their backs up against the wall, the bullpen advantage that South Carolina has, becomes a lot more magnified.

The Bruins bullpen has only thrown 7 2/3 innings in Omaha and should be well-rested for the CWS final. Midweek starter Garett Claypool, who would be a weekend starter for most teams, will fill the long relief role. Erik Goeddel (2-0, 3.12) and closer Dan Klein (6-0, 1.85, 10 saves) will pick up most of the rest of the innings. South Carolina has a lot more arms to choose from as coach Ray Tanner has been known to play match ups (he made three pitching changes in three batters in the CWS opener) and has quality arms on both sides. Closer Matt Price (4-1, 2.38, 10 saves) has overpowering stuff and has struck out 12 batters in seven innings in Omaha.

The Bruins have depth in their rotation so a game one loss does not mean its over. Sportbetting.com free CWS picks has the UCLA Bruins (even) as a coin-flip against the South Carolina Gamecocks (even).  Look for the Bruins to even the series behind Rob Rasmussen in a high scoring game. Avoid the over\under here as the College World Series Betting Odds has the total run line OFF.
