#3 Beaver Baseball Roll Past Portland.

By HD.

James Nygren and Ben Wetzler combined to strike out 13 as the third-ranked Oregon State baseball team defeated Portland, 6-1, Tuesday afternoon in a non-conference game at Joe Etzel Field.

The win pushed the Beavers to a 30-8 record, putting them at the 30-win plateau for the second consecutive season and 11th time in head coach Pat Casey's 17 seasons in Corvallis. OSU also extended its win streak over the Pilots to 11 games.

"Credit James and Ben; they threw very well today," Casey said. "James set the tone early and Ben carried it throughout the end of the game. Offensively, we did what we needed to do to get the win."

Neither team was able to do much through three innings, but the Beavers broke the scoreless stalemate with four runs on six singles in top half of the top half of the fourth. Danny Hayes, Kavin Keyes, Parker Berberet and Ryan Dunn all drove in runs with singles off Portland starter Owen Jones.

Those four runs were all Nygren needed as the right-hander worked 5 1/3 innings to improve to 7-1, tying Sam Gaviglio for the team lead in wins. The senior tied a career-high with eight strikeouts and scattered just three hits while walking none.

Wetzler came in and worked the final 3 2/3 innings, striking out five while allowing an unearned run for his first career save. He struck out five and allowed two hits.

Jones took the loss for Portland after allowing all four runs in the fourth. The right-hander dropped to 3-5 this season after walking two and striking out seven.

The Beavers added two runs in the eighth on a Jared Norris double and a sacrifice fly off the bat of Keyes to conclude the win.

Norris led the Beavers with two hits. He also walked twice.

Kramer Scott tallied two of Portland's five hits. Colin Feldtman, who pinch hit in the ninth, singled home the Pilots' lone run.

The third-ranked Beavers now set their sights on No. 24 UCLA this weekend as the clubs open a three-game series in Los Angeles Friday night starting at 6 p.m. PT.

Beavers Blow Out Stanford, Clinch Series Win.

By HD.

Kavin Keyes and Tyler Smith both tallied three hits and Josh Osich allowed one run in six innings as the No. 9 Oregon State baseball team downed No. 17 Stanford, 8-1, in front of 2,031 fans Saturday afternoon at Sunken Diamond.

"Josh threw very well and Kavin and Tyler really sparked the offense," Oregon State head coach Pat Casey said. "Overall, it was a very good day and I'm very proud of the way this team has played through adversity of late. We will go back to the hotel and get ready for a big game Sunday against the Cardinal."

The win pushed the Beavers to an eight-game win streak, the second longest of the season, and also put OSU at a Pac-10 leading 7-1 in league play. That is the best mark through eight league games for the Beavers since the Pac-10 unified in 1999.

Overall, Oregon State is 26-7 this season and will be looking for a sweep Sunday, which would mark the Beavers' first ever at Stanford. OSU already has the series victory, and has now won each of its last four trips to Stanford dating back to 2005.

On Saturday, the Beavers got on the board early, scoring two in the first. Keyes singled home a run, and the Beavers added a run on the play on a Stanford error.

Keyes made it a 2-for-2 day when he doubled home a run in the third, giving OSU a 3-0 lead.

An inning later, the Beavers broke the game open with a three-run frame. Parker Berberet tripled and scored when Ryan Dunn doubled down the left field line. Dunn scored two batters later on a wild pitch and Jared Norris capped off the inning with a run-scoring single to give OSU the six-run advantage.

Keyes ended the game with a 3-for-3 effort, walking twice and driving in two.

Smith singled in the sixth, doubled in the eighth and drove home the Beavers' final run of the game in the ninth with another single. He finished the day 3-for-4.

All told, the Beavers posted 12 hits off four Stanford pitchers. Michael Miller also had two hits in the win.

Oregon State and Stanford conclude their three-game series Sunday at Sunken Diamond. First pitch is scheduled for 1 p.m. PT.
