OMAHA, June 26 (UPI) -- Danny Dorn's two-run double highlighted a three-run rally in the seventh Saturday as Cal State Fullerton beat Texas, 6-4, in the College World Series.
Cal State Fullerton (46-22) can capture its fourth national title in Game Two on Sunday. Texas (58-14) had an eight-game winning streak snapped.
Trailing 4-3 in the sixth, Fullerton chased Texas starter J.P. Howell by loading the bases with none out. But reliever J. Brent Cox got out of the jam with a strikeout and a double play to preserve the lead.
Jason Turner and Clark Hardman started the seventh with singles. Texas Coach Augie Garrido went to closer Huston Street, the 2002 CWS MVP and a first-round pick by the Oakland Athletics.
Street struck out Kurt Suzuki and P.J. Pilittere -- the third and fourth hitters in the Titans' lineup. But Dorn laced his double just off the glove of left fielder Carson Kainer.
