Beaver baseball’s season ends on a sour note as Creighton defeated them 4-1 Saturday afternoon. Oregon State will very likely be the only national seed (top-16 host schools) to go 0-2, at home to end their season.
Perhaps the best moment of the game came in the bottom of the 8th, when Adley Rutschman stepped up to the plate. In what many recognized was likely Rutschman’s final collegiate at-bat, Adley crushed the ball to the deepest part of the park before Creighton’s center fielder was able to track it down at the warning track. The Beaver crowd gave Adley Rutschman a standing ovation and later cheered on Zak Taylor’s base-hit (who’s struggled at the plate as a senior).
