Rutschman, Burns Pace Beavers Over Minnesota

SURPRISE, Ariz. – Adley Rutschman hit his second home run of the season, a fourth-inning grand slam, and Nathan Burns tossed 3 1/3 scoreless innings of relief to pace Oregon State to a 13-1 win over Minnesota Sunday at Surprise Stadium.

Rutschman drilled a pitch from Minnesota starter Sam Thoresen over the fence in center to extend Oregon State's lead to 7-1 in the fourth. Oregon State (3-0 overall) had scored two in the first thanks to RBIs from Tyler Malone and Andy Armstrong. Alex McGarry, who matches Rutschman for the team lead with six RBI on the year, drove in a run via an infield single right before Rutschman's grand slam.
