OSU Clinches Series With A 12-2 Win Over Oregon

The fourth ranked Oregon State Beavers topped no. 6 Oregon in convincing fashion on Sunday with a series clinching 12-2 victory at PK Park. The win puts Oregon State two games ahead of the Ducks in the Pac-12 standings at 22-5.

The Beavers pulled away early with five runs in the second, fueled by a two out grand slam by Michael Conforto. Conforto finished 3-5 on the day with 6 RBI.

Oregon pitcher Jake Reed (6-4) gave up seven runs, two earned and lasted less than three innings, while OSU’s Ben Wetzler (7-1) threw six full before being relieved of duties for the day.

The baseball edition of the Civil War will be played for a fifth time this season when these two teams meet in what will be considered a non-conference game this Tuesday. The season series is tied at 2-2.
