EUGENE – Tanner Smith homered for the fifth straight game, an Oregon program record, and three Ducks' pitchers combined on a two hitter to give Oregon a 5-0 win over Northwestern State on Saturday and a four-game series sweep.
Matthew Grabmann, Matt Dallas and Josh Mollerus held NSU (13-11) allowed just five base runners in the game with two reaching on hits, a pair on hit-by-pitches and one on an intentional walk. Oregon's defense turned three double plays with the first getting Oregon out of a bases loaded jam in the fourth.
