BSB Story | The Ducks Flew Past the Bears Today Thanks to a 2 HR Inning

Written and Audio Stories by Wilder Lewis

The Ducks took on the Cal Golden Bears again at home today in sunny Eugene. Oregon, after getting battered yesterday by a score of 13-1, looked to get back on the winning track and even up the series at one apiece going into Sunday. Both teams got off to a slow start however as it was scoreless through the first 2 innings. Grinsell started on the mound for the Ducks, and with his team-leading 18 strikeouts, he looked to lock up the Golden Bears as much as possible. Grinsell took the Ducks through 6 innings, setting a new season high, and recorded 9 strikeouts while only giving up 1 run and 1 hit.

Oregon was able to build some momentum off of Grinsell as they got walked around in the 3rd to bring home one. Then, in the 4th the Ducks exploded for a big four-run inning that was jump-started by freshman Ryan Cooney who launched a 2 run HR down the left field line. Oregon wasn’t done in the inning though as after Carter…

Baseball Story: Cal Dominates Oregon in Game One of Weekend Series

By Jonah Bruneau

EUGENE, Ore. – The Golden Bears of Cal got out to an early 2-0 lead in the first inning and never looked back as they took down the Ducks 13-1 on Friday night to open the weekend series.

Oregon, coming into Friday at 11-5, had dropped the mid-week match back on Tuesday against Portland in an eye-opening 15-5 loss. The pitching woes largely continued inside PK Park on Friday. 

Junior RJ Gordon got the start on the mound for the Ducks in what would become his worst outing so far on the season. Gordon went five innings giving up six earned runs on seven hits, three of which were round trippers. The Junior catcher for the Golden Bears, Caleb Lomavita, took Gordon deep twice, with the first being a two-run shot in the opening inning, and the other being a solo shot in the top of the fifth en route to a 3-5 day at the plate.

Two Freshman for California, PJ Moutzouridis and Matthew Thomas, each went deep as well.…

OREGON WLAX PREVIEW: The Ducks look to start Pac 12 play strong against the Cal Golden Bears

By Tayten Torgrimson

Oregon Lacrosse has completely turned around the program and the work has shown. This non-conference season, Oregon went 6-1, already eclipsing more wins than last season. Oregon has outscored its opponents 111 to 59. To close off non-conference play Oregon defeated Furman 18-7. On paper, Oregon should win the Pac-12 opener against Cal handily. Cal is coming into its final non-conference game against Butler with a 2-5 record. So far, Cal has scored 65 goals to its opponents’ 68.

Players to watch – Oregon:

Players to keep an eye on for Oregon are midfielder Anna Simmons, attacker Lauren Rismani and midfielder Morgan McCarthy. Rismani is the general of this team’s offense. Almost every play is run through either three of these players, all three have a “sense” of this game that Oregon hasn’t seen for a while. McCarthy was the star of last season’s team, scoring 37 goals. This season, McCarthy already has 22 goals,…

Oregon SB Preview: Oregon Heads to Salt Lake City to Play the Utes

Oregon is ranked No. 24 coming off of a series win versus No. 19 California, and will now head to Salt Lake City to play the Utah Utes. Both the Ducks and the Utes are 14-9 coming into this series. This will be another tough matchup for Oregon.
