Saturday evening saw the No. 21 ranked Ducks defeat the No. 19 Oregon State Beavers at PK Park in game two of their weekend series. The Ducks defeated the Beavers on Friday night 4-1, and Saturday night, the Ducks won again, this time 5-1. 

“You want to be able to win in a lot of different ways-that’s when we are a good team. It’s not easy sometimes to score when the weather turns cold at PK park at a late night game…it was just fun to watch the players, they wanted to win and it was evident through their execution.” Coach Wasikowski stated in the post-game presser.

The game started off with Oregon State playing aggressive in the box, and throughout the evening had opportunities with runners on base, but left a total of 12 on base. It was a struggle throughout, with the Beavers only batting .152 for the game. 

            Defensively for the Ducks, tonight presented opportunities…

In game 1, UCLA jumped out to a quick 3-0 lead in the top of the first after the Bruin’s first 3 hitters found their way around the bases and home. After that, Oregon’s Brooke Yanez and Samaria Diaz combined for 2 allowed hits, 0 runs, and 11 strikeouts. Oregon also swung the bats well in game 1, however the Ducks did not find pay day as Oregon stranded 10 runners on base thought the game. Oregon’s 8 hits compared to UCLA’s 4 proved not to be enough as UCLA hung on through excellent pitching from Rachel Garcia to take game 1 by a score of 3-0.

In game 2, UCLA proved to be the much more dominant team. Makenna Kliethermes drew the start and played solid though the first 3 innings before walking 2 runners in the top of the the 4th and being pulled. Samaria Diaz, who was excellent in relief in game 1, did not have her magic stuff as she allowed 7 hits and 6 earned runs thorough her 3 1/3 innings of work. In the top of the 5th,…

The Ducks offense stayed hot in the next inning as Haley Cruse ripped a double to right center field driving in Deijah Pangilinan to extend the Ducks lead to 3-0.

The score remained unchanged for the rest of the game as Brooke Yanez shut out the Bruins for the rest of the way.

The Oregon Ducks baseball team beat their rival Oregon State 4 to 1 to start a 3 game series on Friday April 9, 2021. The victory was led behind a strong pitching performance as well as some clutch late inning runs by the Ducks. For Oregon Robert Ahlstrom pitched a masterful performance to put the Ducks in position to win against the Beavers. Ahlstrom went into the 8th inning allowing only 1 run on 5 hits with 9 strikeouts. Gabe Matthews homered in the 5th inning to give the Ducks their first lead, and he had 2 RBI in the ballgame.

After throwing 107 pitches through 7 innings Oregon coach Mike Wasikowski sent out Ahlstrom for the 8th inning. Following a leadoff triple Ahlstrom was pulled for Mosiello who gave up a SAC fly to tie the ballgame. In the bottom of the inning Oregon responded with a rally of their own. Tanner Smith led off the inning with a single up the middle and Anthony Hall put runners on 1st and 3rd with a single of his own…

It was not the type of performance that Oregon Baseball Head coach Mark Wasikowski wanted when the Portland Pilots(13-13) came into town on Tuesday afternoon as the Pilots took care of business against the hometown Ducks. Isaac Ayon got the start for the ducks but only lasted 2 ⅓ innings after giving up 6 hits and 4 runs, which was enough to credit the freshman Pitcher with his first loss of the season. Oregon struggled stopping the power hitters of the Pilots allowing Sam Brown and Chad Stevens a combined 7 hits on 10 at bats and a combined 5 RBIs. 

Errors were also an issue for the Ducks today. The usually reliable 3b Kenyon Yovan could not handle a ground ball, and catcher Jack Scanlon allowed a pitch past him which gave up a run. In addition to these errors, the Ducks also committed a baserunning error when Josh Kasevich did not touch second base when returning to first after a deep Jack Scanlon flyout. Mental mistakes cost the…
