Oregon State’s run through the postseason ended Monday evening in a 4-3 loss to the Auburn Tigers. Despite a handful of great performances, the Beavers couldn’t capitalize on their scoring opportunities, especially as Auburn’s pitching tightened their grip in later innings. Oregon State’s season ends with a 48-18 overall record.
Jaren Hunter got the start for the Beavers, and put in a great showing. Over 5.0 innings pitched, Hunter allowed only one hit and one walk. Unfortunately, both of those came in the top of the third. After two ground outs, Hunter walked Auburn’s Cole Foster, and then then Tiger Sonny DiChiara hit a two run homer over the left center wall.
