Arizona State (26-12, 12-4 Pac-12) never held a lead Saturday against No. 21 Oregon State (26-12, 11-9 Pac-12) before freshman Isaiah Jackson, who had previously homered on the night, stepped-up to the plate with two outs and the bases loaded in the ninth inning.
With a 2-1 count, and the score tied at 7-7, Jackson only needed one run. Instead, he turned on a pitch and sent a long homer over the right-field fence to win Saturday’s game 11-7.
