LOS ANGELES, Calif. (KEYT) - The Mustangs took a 3-run lead into the bottom of the eighth inning at Loyola Marymount but left LA with an 8-7 loss.

It was a wild eighth inning that saw Cal Poly scored four times to lead 7-4. Dante Vachini singled in two runs in that frame. He had 3 hits and 3 RBI for the Mustangs who drop to 14-9 on the season.

But LMU answered back with a 3-run 8th inning setting the stage for Ghiorso.

Cal Poly left 11 runners on base.
