EUGENE, Ore. – Extra outs that led to unearned runs proved to be too much to overcome as No. 14 Oregon fell to No. 16 Arizona State 9-4 Saturday night at Jane Sanders Stadium.
The Ducks (24-10, 4-7) led 4-1 after five innings on the strength of a stellar performance in the circle from freshman Stevie Hansen, who struck out a season-high eight batters while giving up three earned runs on five hits.
But Arizona State (27-5, 8-0) scored six runs in the sixth – three of which were unearned – for the come-from-behind win.
