University of Oregon release
SAN DIEGO -- Matt Mercer threw seven three-hit innings and freshmen slammed the door over the final two frames as the Oregon baseball team beat Seton Hall 1-0 on Saturday in the Ducks' first of two games on the day in the Tony Gwynn Classic.
How It Happened: Mercer (1-1) faced the minimum through six, and used his career-high seventh strikeout to escape a jam in the seventh after allowing two one-out singles. The outing was the longest of Mercer's career, and was necessary on a morning Oregon's bats largely were quiet.
