BSB | Oregon Falls to Fresno State 5-1
Halfway through their four-game stint against Fresno State (14-9), Oregon (16-12) came out on Friday night seeking redemption after their poor showing in the first game of the series. Robert Ahlstrom (3.79 ERA) took the mound for the Ducks boasting a team high four wins on the season. After only allowing two runs through 7 innings, Ahlstrom put the Ducks in a position to win. However, a bullpen breakdown gave the Bulldogs a 5-1 lead late in the game, which would eventually be the final score.
The last thing Oregon wanted was a continuation of their offensive struggles, but with only one run scored, that is exactly what it seemed to be. Before this series the Ducks had seven straight games with at least three runs scored. They have failed to reach that mark in two straight games. On Friday night that was largely due to Fresno State’s Ryan Jensen (3.57 ERA) who was torching batters with fastballs topping out at 98 mph. Though Jensen rarely used his other pitches, it was…

BSB | Oregon Struggles in Series Opener Against Fresno State
Oregon baseball (16-11) started off a four game series tonight against Fresno State (14-9) with a 14-2 loss in the rain. RHP Tyler Frazier (2.45 ERA) had a slow start in the first inning, allowing all of the first three hitters on base. However, with the bases loaded the freshman played damage control, letting only one runner score. Fresno State’s Jamison Hill (3.18 ERA) also had a shaky first inning, allowing Sam Novitske to score off Tanner Smith’s double. But after allowing a run and two hits in as many batters, Hill settled in.
Despite a sloppy first inning, the pitchers were locked in on a wet mound. Both sides went scoreless until the fifth inning when Oregon’s Max Foxcroft singled into centerfield bringing in the tie-breaking run in Cameron Campbell from second.
Then came the sixth inning, where a complete collapse in Oregon pitching led to a total of 14 batters faced, five walks, four hits, and two errors. Four pitchers shared the dreadful inning,…

Read MoreAUDIO: Oregon Football Ready for Saturday Showcase in Portland
With a few weeks to go before the team takes to Autzen Stadium for the 2019 Spring Game, Oregon football practiced inside on Thursday morning ahead of its first showcase to the public this Saturday, when the Ducks will head to Portland for an open scrimmage. One player in particular that's ready to get out in front of a crowd is junior tight end Cam McCormick, who missed all of the 2018 season after breaking his leg in the Ducks' opener. On display for Oregon will be a new-look defense spearheaded by defensive coordinator Andy Avalos, who brings with him a new position on the defense known as the STUD. Ripe for the opportunity to fulfill this new role is sophomore linebacker Adrian Jackson, who has bulked up in preparation for the new position. Listen below as McCormick and Jackson spoke with the media Thursday morning.
