CORVALLIS, Ore. – Ryan Ober hit a grand slam in the second inning and Grant Gambrell tied a career-high with 12 strikeouts as Oregon State defeated California, 10-5, Sunday in front of 3,726 fans at Goss Stadium at Coleman Field.
The victory sent the Beavers (16-4-1 overall, 3-3 Pac-12 Conference) to a series win over the Golden Bears (11-10, 2-4). Cal took the opener Friday, 3-2, and the Beavers answered with a 3-2 victory Saturday.
On Sunday, the offense gave Gambrell (1-1 on the year) plenty of cushion early on. Oregon State scored five in the first – highlighted by a two-run single off the bat of Preston Jones.
