Five Homers Back Mills As Cougars Even Series With No. 8 Oregon

PULLMAN, Wash. (May 1, 2021) – Washington State hit five home runs to back junior starting pitcher who worked into the eighth inning of a 11-1 victory over No. 8 Oregon at Bailey-Brayton Field Saturday afternoon.

The Cougars (20-17, 8-12 Pac-12) evened the series with the Ducks (27-10, 11-6 Pac-12) after collecting 14 hits and posting a five-run second inning and four-run sixth. WSU recorded its first win over a Top-10 ranked team since beating No. 8 Arizona in 2017.

Preseason All-American first baseman led the way with three hits and five RBI, hitting a grand slam in the five-run second inning and finished a single shy of hitting for the cycle.
