The Ducks came into this weekend in a tight race for second in the Big Ten Standings and an outside chance at the number one spot in the Big Ten still up for grabs. Standing in the Ducks way this weekend is their biggest rival, the Washington Huskies.
To absolutely no one’s surprise Oregon gave the ball in the opener to ace Grayson Grinsell with the hopes of picking up a win in the opener. After Grinsell pitched a scoreless opening inning the Ducks offence went to work early to give the Ducks the lead. Mason Neville would get into scoring position on a sac bunt after a lead off walk and it was Jacob Walsh who would deliver an RBI single to score the Ducks first run of the game.
