First!
Ah man, now I'm jealous!
GO BEAVS!!!
This is a huge series.
Talk about a pitching duel!
Tyler Smith goes to third on a 3 base throwing error by the third baseman to start this game. Comes home on Conforto's RBI ground out. 1-0 Beavers
Missed opportunity by Smith to get Max over to 3rd with just one out.
1-0 Beavers after 2 1/2 innings
Runners on second and third and 1 out for Stanford in the 4th
Bases loaded with 1 out now
3 run double, 3-1 Stanford
Bases loaded and 1 out for Dylan Davis. Need a big hit here
And Davis delivers! Three run double, 4-3 Beavers
Two run single by Keyes. 6-3 Beavers. OSU is the first team to score 6 runs off Appel and score 5 ER off him this season
What an answer by the Beavs when most people would've thought with a 3-1 deficit it was game over.
6-3 Beavers after 5 innings
How 'bout Hayes staying with that foul to end the 5th? Nice D!
6-3 Beavers after 6 innings
Leadoff triple by Dylan Davis to start the 7th. Time to tack on some more runs.
Sac fly by Barnes. 7-3 Beavers
JRod HBP, looked like his left hand. Beavs have needed him all season, but especially lately as he has added the bat to his rifle arm. Hope he can shake it off.
matty is out in comes Bryant. Hold my breathe.
7-3 Beavers after 7 innings
Tony put himself in a tough spot but made a good pitch to get the inning ending K
Oregon baseball game vs Ohio St was rained out tonight and moved to tomorrow. They'll have to finish 3 games in the next 2 days, then come home for a 2 game series vs Gonzaga on Tuesday and Wednesday.
That could help to deplete their bullpen for the Civil War series next week. Beavs don't have any mid week games this week, so plenty of time to rest up after the Stanford series.
BTW- thanks for the game updates GoBeavs.
7-3 Beavers after 8 innings
Bryant closes this one out. Beavers win 7-3
Bryant with 2 and 2 thirds, 1 hit and 6 Ks
Great job by the Beavs, they battled back after giving up 3 runs in the 4th. Great effort by everyone in the lineup tonight.
Nice win….all done without the Beav's two best hitters getting hits, Tyler Smith and Michael Conforto. Here's to the Ducks sweeping Ohio State (reverse jinx ;) …)
Geaux Beavs!
Nice job by Matty, Bryant, and Davis with a breakout gamme offensively.

great video, even better catch!
What cracks me up is hearing Parker in the background at the end…must be in the booth next door.
Conforto hit into a triple play in the first inning
I always relax a little when the Beavs win the first game of a series. I figure worst case scenario they are not going to get swept and they have two chances to win the series.
Scoreless after 2 innings
Quacks might be going into extra innings against the Buckeyes. I hope it goes 15 innings and blows through Duck pitching.
I've watched a lot of that game, game should probably already be over. Buckeyes have gotten hosed on quite a few calls
Bases loaded and 2 outs for Michael Conforto
Wild pitch scores Keyes, 1-0 Beavers
Bases loaded and 2 outs for Dylan Davis
Dylan Davis two run double, 3-0 Beavers
Barnes walks, Conforto scores on the wild pitch. 4-0 Beavers
http://pac-12.com/live/gostanford.aspx
4-0 Beavers after 3 innings
Keyes with a 1 out double in the 4th
Throwing error by Blandino makes it 5-0 Beavers, Peterson follows with an RBI single. 6-0 Beavers
6-0 Beavers after 4 innings
6-0 Beavers after 5 innings
Back-to-back singles by Keyes and Gordon start the 6th
Smith sac bunt, slo-mo showed even the Stanford announcers that he was safe. 1 out, runners at 1 & 3. t6
Andy Peterson sac fly, 7-0 Beavers
RBI singe by Dylan Davis. 8-0 Beavers
Single, I should say.
8-0 Beavers after 5 1/2 innings. The OSU offense has really brought their A game this weekend.
Two run homer by Austin Wilson makes it 8-2 after 6 innings
JRod apparently thrown out of the game, Espo behind the plate now.
Parker confirms, 2 minutes later.
There seemed to be alot of chirping between the benches during the game. Casey was upset at Stanford's manager for having players in the way as Peterson scored and had to go down to his knees after he crossed home plate. some bad blood between these teams. Beavs have won 11 0f 14 in Sunken Diamond.
8-2 Beavers after 7 innings. Nice job by Brandon Jackson coming in to end that potential rally by Stanford and keep the lead pretty comfortable for the Beavers.
Gordon now 3 of 4 with a leadoff single in the 8th. He's been getting on base constantly as of late. That's big with who they have at the top of the order.
2 RBI single by Dylan Davis, 10-2 Beavers
It'll be interesting to learn the story behind the ejection of JRod. Regardless, I see it as a good thing, Casey will handle it well and there is a good chance it will spark a surge of "us against the world" feelings. JRod, as a leader on this team may have been the perfect guy to have involved.
Two concerns, How will JRod relate to ump(s) tomorrow and This team was already well focused – hopefully this isn't enough to get them too amped up to function well (doubt Casey'd let that happen).
Per new NCAA rules J-Rod will not be playing tomorrow. Automatic one game suspension for arguing with an umpire. Only the head coach is allowed to do so.
Starting in 2013, all non-head
coaching team personnel who are
ejected for disputing an umpire’s call
will receive a one-game suspension
for the first ejection of the season
and a three-game suspension for
any subsequent ejections during the
season (2-25).

Thanks, whiskey, I think I'd heard that but didn't remember. So, my first concern is of no consequence Sunday, just something to watch on the 17th or whenever the Beavs face the same umpire.
Actually, having JRod suspended Sunday may give us an idea of the effect of the incident upon the rest of the team right away. I see it as a positive motivator, as if this team needs motivation. Maybe just added incentive to win.
The incident kman mentioned above where Peterson collided with the Stanford pitcher as he (the pitcher) attempted to back up the catcher is likely a similar motivator. BTW, the Stanford announcers clearly felt that Peterson was at fault, saying that when he crossed the plate he was no longer an active participant in the play and should have deferred to the pitcher. To me, it looked like the pitcher intentionally moved into Peterson. The stream was, however, not entirely clear on that.
I didn't see any of the game today only listened to bits and pieces on the radio so I can't form an opinion on any of the matters that occured one way or another. All I can say is Go Beavs and let's sweep those bitches Sunday!!!!!!
Jackson give up a solo HR and is done for the day. 10-3 w/no outs b9
Stanford gets a homer and an RBI groundout in the 9th, Beavers win 10-4
Thanks for the hi-lites guys. I didnt even have time to listen.
OT: Recruiting updates:
They are hitting Texas hard, several offers. They have lost out on TE who committed to Baylor and had us second. They have offered RB Kendrick Igbinoba we are his first offer and Arkansas and Okie St are also looking to offer.
Even with a QB commit they are still after several other passers, including Tyler Hilinski and Brad Kaaya and Manny Wilkins and Morgan Mahalak
They have had an unofficial visit from Mountlake, WA LB Devante Downs and still in play with local Joey Alfieri LB.
Thanks for the updates! Good to see the staff attempting to address the LB position.
BOT (back on topic) – Sweep 'em Beavs.
Two wild pitches result in the only run as ucks sweep TOSU today.
A secret to beating the ucks?…..eliminate WP's, HBP, and errors!
Never seen a team like them that relies on mistakes from the opposition to score runs. I think all that luck comes to an end next weekend
Amen!!
Not withstanding Sherfy’s talent, the only team that can beat the Beavs next weekend is the Beavs themselves.
2-0 Good Guys at the end of 2 innings. Wetzler 4 K's so far, Hayes 2 run HR in t2.
Are there any feeds for free? Won't have cable until Football season.
Thanks

2-0 Beavers after 3 innings
Keyes smoked a ball to right and gets robbed of a hit with a diving catch.
Wild pitch scores Hayes. 3-0 Beavers
3-0 Beavers after 4 innings
Runners at 2 and 3 for Conforto, no outs t5. Beavs chanelling ucks get both runners on via HBP and advanced via WP. Still 3-0.
Danny HBP with the bases loaded, 4-0 Beavers
Sac fly to very shallow center by Keyes scores Peterson. 5-0 Beavers
Should say LCF
Parker's analysis seemed correct, if the CF had handled the fly ball it would have been very close at the plate. As it was, the throw by the LF bounced on the mound.
5-0 Beavers after 5 innings
RBI fielder's choice by Ragira and RBI single by Wilson makes it 5-2 Beavers
Double play gets Wetzler out of the 6th. 5-2 Beavers
3-6 DP ends the Stanford 6th, did anyone's stream show it?
As the 7th starts, Beavs have 5 runs, 2 hits; Stanford 2 runs 5 hits.
If Casey follows his recent pattern, Wetzler will only face one batter in the 7th.
OK, so he faces two batters. Tony Bryant coming in with 1 out and runner on first.
what lead do the Beavs currently have on UO in P12?
1/2 game
Wetzler with a 1 out walk in the 7th, Tony Bryant is coming in
5-2 Beavers after 7 innings
5-2 Beavers after 7 1/2 innings, Beavers may have gotten hosed on a call that would have given them a 6th run
Bryant's command just isn't there. Hasn't been great this series. He cannot throw a strike.
Wait a minute, Bryant was great on Friday. Even Casey said it's the best he's seen Bryant pitch. 2.2 innings, 6 Ks and only gave up one hit.
He was very good on Friday, but still at times struggled with his command here and there especially in the 7th on Friday night, but was able to settle down and throw strikes in the 8th and 9th. I didn't mean he wasn't great this series, meant his command of his pitches hadn't been great this weekend. Today was a different story. Had all kinds of trouble throwing strikes. Bryant has bounced back this season after having a rough go at it at times last year, but his command is a little up and down. Needs to throw more strikes.
2 on via BB, no outs b8. Bryant done, in comes Schultz. Still 5-2
RBI double by Austin Wilson, 5-3 Beavers, runners on second and third and no outs
Danny Hayes with a huge mistake to throw home, doesn't get the runner and cost OSU an out. Can't make that kind of a mistake.
5-4-2 DP keeps Beavs up 5-4. Of course, my stream failed at critical moment!!
Still need an out to finish the b8, runner on 1st.
Pretty huge play there, if Wilson doesn't break home, they probably have runners on the corners and 1 out. Mental mistakes by both teams on consecutive plays. Schultz gets out of it. 3 outs from a sweep
I'm betting Wilson had confidence he could bowl over Espo (or JRod, were he in there).
Leadoff walk by Smith, critical to get him home and get an insurance run.
Stanford throws a wild pitch on an intentional walk. That is bad. Now they've scrapped the idea of intentionally walking Conforto, opting for the unintentional intentional walk instead
Now Davis will be intentionally walked. Stanford will likely bring in a lefty reliever to face Hayes with bases loaded
Huge double play there. Hayes did not get it done there. 5-4 Beavers going to the bottom of the 9th
Talk about disappointing! DP ends the t9, score still 5-4.
Beavs offense non-existent today, hard to credit Stanford pitching since they've given up 5 WP's, 9 BB, 4 HBP!!!
Offense hasn't been very good but the Stanford defense also made some great catches to rob the Beavers of extra bases in the outfield. Just one of those days, but they took advantage of wildness from Stanford pitching
Beavers win 5-4 and sweep the Cardinal. Beavers will take a 1 game lead over the Ducks into their series against Oregon this Friday
Wow! Beavs escape with the win and sweep. One heck of a wake-up call for these guys.
