EUGENE, Ore. — Entering a month in which every win will be crucial for Oregon's postseason hopes, the Ducks set the tone with a 7-3 series-opening victory over Stanford on Friday at PK Park.
How It Happened: The Ducks staked starter Cole Irvin to an early lead, as Mitchell Tolman had an RBI triple and scored on an infield out for a 2-0 lead in the first. Oregon (26-19, 8-11 Pac-12) loaded the bases on three walks in the second and made it 3-0 when Nick Catalano walked to force in a run, before Tolman drove in two more with a single.
