Welcome

Welcome to Dirtbags Baseball blog! I was introduced to Long Beach State baseball in 2002 when my nephew, Neil Jamison, joined the team (and university) as a freshman. I started the blog in March of 2004, and generally discuss the team, current players and those that have moved on to professional baseball - as Neil has done in the San Diego Padres organization. Living in San Diego County, and with Neil moving to the next level, I won't be attending as many Dirtbags games. But, mostly from a distance, I'll remain a Dirtbags fan. I welcome tips on stories and information concerning the Dirtbags (current, past and future). I can be contacted at dirtbagsfan@yahoo.com.

Daily 49er Feature On Evan Longoria

From the Long Beach State Daily 49er:
Longoria leads Dirtbags to victory at top of lineup

By Matt Pearson
Sports Editior
Daily Forty-Niner

The leadoff hitter is a spot that requires a leadership role because they have the responsibility for setting the tone for the rest of the offense. Sophomore third baseman Evan Longoria has done just that.

With his solid defense and his ability to get on base, Longoria helped lead the 49er baseball team to wins over Loyola Marymount University, and University of Houston. Against LMU on March 8, Longoria became the first Dirtbag to record five hits in a game since Brad Davis accomplished this feat in February of 2004.

Longoria went 5-5 with three runs scored in the game.

After losing the first game of the series to Houston Friday, Longoria and the Dirtbags came back with two wins to take the series 2-1. On Saturday, he went 3-5 at the plate with an RBI, one run scored, and a stolen base as LBSU won 5-1. In the rubber game on Sunday, Longoria collected two more hits as the Dirtbags prevailed with a 5-4 victory. Longoria recorded a batting average of .611 for the series as LBSU won three games in the four-game home stand.

This level of production is not new for Longoria. He leads the Dirtbags in hits (31), doubles (6) and walks (7). He is also second in runs scored (10), and is tied for second on the team in RBI (11). Longoria also has a .360 batting average for the season.

In his first season at LBSU, Longoria has proven to be an impact player. And looking at his history before putting on a Dirtbag uniform, it should come as a no surprise. As a freshman at Rio Hondo Junior College, Longoria batted .430 and earned All-Foothill and first team All-State honors. He also recorded 64 RBI, nine doubles, three triples and eight home runs with .683 on-base percentage.
