Read MoreBSB | Stanford completes sweep of Ducks with bats and arms
After getting blown out in Friday's game, Oregon(22-16, 7-8 Pac-12) looked downtrodden as they lost the third game of the series 10-0 on Saturday to complete the Stanford(27-6, 13-2 Pac-12) sweep. With the loss, Oregon drops to below .500 in Pac-12 play, certainly not the place the team wants to be at this point in the season.
Starting pitcher Tyler Frazier could not even escape the first inning before being chased from the game. He would finish with five earned runs, while walking three and striking out none. Kolby Somers and Ryne Nelson would pick up the slack for him though, combining for 7.1 innings of three run ball; Nelson especially looked impressive, striking out eight batters over his 3.2 innings while allowing no earned runs of his own. Oregon pitching continued to be hounded by Brandon Wulff, who would be walked three times, and in the ninth inning, he hit one of the longest home runs ever at PK Park, estimated at 440 feet. He finishes the weekend 7-10 with…

Read MoreSB | Oregon Cannot Sweep Series, Loses to California 5-3
After a 15-hour break, Oregon and Cal resumed the rained-out game early Saturday morning. Oregon was up 1-0 and picked up where they left off before the rain delay. The Ducks slugged two home runs and tallied six hits en route to a 4-0 win over the Bears in game two of the series.
Game three was played to a different tune as Cal plated five runs in the opening frame of the game. All five runs were unearned because Jasmine Sievers and Rachel Cid accumulated two errors to allow those runners to reach base or score. Zoe Conley and Kamalani Dung held Oregon scoreless through the first five innings, but the Duck-bats came alive in the sixth inning when they tallied two two-out runs to come within three runs. Shaye Bowden opened the seventh with a solo home run, but Conley retired the next two batters. With two outs, Hannah Galey drew a walk and Lexi Wagner singled, providing Haley Cruse with a prime opportunity to tie the game or give her team the win. Unfortunately for the…
