Oregon Baseball Completes Series Sweep Against PAC-12 Rival Utah

Written By Jonah Bruneau

A huge weekend for Oregon Baseball was capped off Sunday as the Ducks completed a three-game series sweep at home against the Utah Utes, who held a solid 11-4-1 record coming into the weekend. The Ducks were able provide plenty of offense once again Sunday, which helped lead to a 7-2 victory on a crisp and overcast early afternoon inside PK Park. This is now Oregon's second series sweep this season, with the first coming against St. John's back in February. However this sweep seems to have more meaning and impact, coming against a talented PAC-12 opponent. Between both Stanford and Utah, the Ducks are now 5-1 in their conference.

Junior Caleb Sloan got the start in Sunday's series finale, an unfamiliar position for him as it was just his second start of the season. Sloan has become a staple in the bullpen for the Ducks, but Head Coach Mark Wasikowski has made it visually clear that he wants to see adaptability this…

Oregon Baseball Scores 5 Late for Comeback Victory Against Utah

By Knight Jarecki

EUGENE, OR — Oregon Baseball (12-6) has been a team of comebacks this season. After picking up their 5th comeback win of the season Friday night, Oregon came from behind again on Saturday as the Ducks scored 5 runs in the 8th inning to beat Utah (11-6-1) 8-6. In their last 4 victories, the Ducks have trailed in every game only to rally back for the win.

Oregon got the offense started in the first inning. Brennan Milone launched a ball over the left-field fence on a solo shot for his 5th home run of the season and second in the past two days to give the Ducks an early 1-0 advantage. Isaac Ayon started the game with 8 straight outs and was on his way for his 9th consecutive out, but a throwing error by Sam Novitske kept the 3rd inning alive for Utah. After the error from Novitske, Utah scored 3 runs on 3 hits which were highlighted by a TJ Clarkson RBI single…

PREVIEW: Oregon Baseball Opens their Home Pac-12 Schedule Against Utah

The Oregon Baseball team is coming off an extremely successful weekend, as they traveled to The Farm and took two of three from the then #5 Stanford Cardinal, all while keeping their hot bats against a good pitching staff and showing immense resilience against a very strong squad. Though I was personally not too high on them, the Ducks are proving to be a team with a whole lot of hitting, but also one that is lacking in the pitching department. However, since they are somewhat self-described as a team with a short list of preseason expectations, I’m sure Coach Wasikowski and Oregon fans are all content with the strengths of this team in what was supposed to be a rebuilding year. This weekend, the University of Utah Utes will come to PK Park as the Ducks play their first home Pac-12 series of the season. In this article, I’ll be breaking down the game by game pitching matchups, projected lineups, and my predictions for the outcomes of these games.
