CORVALLIS, Ore. – Oregon State used a six-run second inning to push ahead of Utah in a 6-2 series-opening win over the Utes Friday night at Goss Stadium at Coleman Field.
Adley Rutschman hit his ninth home run of the season to cap the six-run frame, which saw the Beavers collect four hits and two walks in sending nine batters to the plate. Beau Philip and Jake Harvey both drove in solo runs while Rutschman's shot to left drove in two.
The ninth home run of the year equaled Rutschman's season total from a year ago.
