Easley / Associated Press UC Santa Barbara players pile onto teammate Sam Cohen following his walk-off grand slam to beat Louisville on Sunday. UC Santa Barbara took advantage of that opening in their final chance and is now off to Omaha. Sam Cohen put UC Santa Barbara into its first College World Series with a pinch-hit grand slam in the bottom of the ninth inning for a 4-3 victory over second-seeded Louisville on Sunday at the Louisville, Ky., Super Regional. Until then, UC Santa Barbara hadn't been able to touch Louisville left-hander Drew Harrington, who struck out a career-best 12 and gave up only six hits in seven-plus innings.
