The Oregon Ducks took down the USC Trojans 9-2 on Saturday to tie the series at 1-1. Oregon was led by Kenyon Yovan, who pitched eight innings, giving up just two runs and throwing an impressive 15 K’s. Rain played a big factor in this one, as the game was delayed for 31 minutes in the bottom of the fourth inning. In that same inning, the Ducks got through their entire order and scored 5 runs. The rainy weather seemed to bother the Trojans all game long, as Oregon earned a majority of their runs of walks, passed balls, and errors. In total, the Trojans three pitchers gave up 13 walks and threw five wild pitches. Oregon only won the hitting battle eight hits to six, but all the mistakes allowed the Ducks to get on base, and they capitalized. Oregon will look to win the series on Sunday at noon, before hosting the Oregon State Beavers on Tuesday.
