Pitching, Defense Key Win In Fresno Finale

FRESNO, Calif. – Oregon stayed perfect on the season behind yet another dominant pitching performance, while Haley Cruse saved the game with a diving catch with the tying run at second in the bottom of the seventh of a 2-1 win over Fresno State on Sunday.

How it Happened: Heading into the bottom of the seventh with a one-run lead, Samaria Diaz got the first out of the inning before a double put a Fresno State runner on second with one out. Diaz got a big strikeout for the second out, before Cruse laid out to make a diving grab in right center field to end the game and strand the potential tying run at second.
