Oregon Baseball Rallies in Ninth, Wins 4-3 in 11.
By Liam Baker
Comeback victories are becoming the norm for this Ducks team and today was no different. The Ducks (18-7) trailed San Francisco (14-14) 3-2 heading into the ninth, but scored once in the ninth and again in the 11th to win 4-3. The Ducks managed just six hits, their second lowest of the season, but managed to pull out the win thanks to some clutch hitting and stellar pitching.
The Ducks' first-inning woes looked like they were going to continue when Scott Ellis, making his first career start, allowed the first two Dons to reach via a hit-by-pitch and walk. Ellis responded by getting three straight outs highlighted by a strike out of Gabe Giosso after Jack Scanlon threw out Luke Keaschall trying to steal third base. The Ducks looked to pick up right where they left off yesterday in the bottom of the first when Tanner Smith and Colby Shade both reached via error, but Brennan Milone's double-play killed Oregon's chances of picking up some early runs…

Read MoreOregon Baseball Scores Six Late to Beat USC 7-6
By Liam Baker
EUGENE, OR — In a series that has been full of late inning-drama, Sunday’s game was no different. The Oregon Ducks (16-7) trailed the USC Trojans (14-8) 6-1 after two innings but mounted a furious comeback in the late innings to win 7-6, their eighth come from behind victory of the season.
The Trojan offense got going early. After a pair of one-out walks by Caleb Sloan, the Trojans got three straight RBI knocks highlighted by a two-run home run by Nick Lopez to give USC a 5-0 lead. The Ducks were able to get one back in the bottom of the inning thanks to an RBI double by Brennan Milone which brought Colby Shade home. Tommy Brandenburg, who hadn’t pitched since March 13, took over for Sloan in the top half of the second but wasn’t able to slow the Trojans down. D’Andre Smith hit one over the left-field wall to make it 6-1, but that was last Trojan to cross the plate.
Logan Mercado took over for Brandenburg and was…
