Oregon State got them in a big hole against UC Irvine, but unlike Friday night, their attempt to work their way out of it fell just short. A walk off home run in the bottom of the ninth gave UC Irvine an 11-9 win, dropping Oregon State to 26-11 this season.
Things started well for the Beavers, with a passed ball and a Troy Claunch single giving the team a 2-0 lead after the top of the first. Things fell apart pretty quickly after that. After a strikeout to start the bottom of the first, starter Cooper Hjerpe loaded the bases with two singles and a beaned batter.
