Both Diamond Ducks teams came into Sunday’s matchups having sewed up their respective series with two straight wins and needing just one more for a sweep. So far in Conference, softball had yet to record a sweep but baseball swept Arizona two weeks ago. The desert has proven more beneficial for the Ducks than Eugene as softball completed their road series sweep of Arizona State, while baseball dropped a close third game at home to #7 Stanford.

The Ducks got off to another great start against the Cardinal on Sunday. Starting pitcher Leo Uelmen gave up three first-inning, one-out walks to load the bases, but then got an 8-pitch strikeout and a four-pitch strikeout to work his way out of the situation.
