The Oregon Ducks(23-11, 6-7 Pac-12) came off a rough weekend dropping two of three against Arizona and hoped to turn the tide at home hosting Stanford. David Peterson got his usual Friday start and was in trouble early. The Cardinal(21-12, 6-7 Pac-12) found ways to get to him early with a run and two hits in the first inning.
The top of the second did not go any better for Peterson. He allowed two additional runs to Stanford as they started to build a lead at 3-0. The Oregon Junior forced a groundout to end the inning.
Gabe Matthews led off the bottom of the second with a home run to put the Oregon Ducks on the board.
