Vanderbilt gave Oregon State all they had, but it wasn’t enough to get past the Beavers, as Oregon State prevailed 7-6 to advance to Super Regionals. In an incredibly tight contest that came down to the last out, Oregon State was able to rely on their biggest stars to secure the win.
The game started well for the Beavers, with Justin Boyd hitting a solo home run in the team’s first at bat of the day. Oregon State starter Jaren Hunter managed to hold onto that 1-0 lead for three innings, but in the top of the fourth he walked Vanderbilt batter Javier Vaz, and then gave up a two run homer to Spencer Jones, giving the Commodores a 2-1 lead.
