Beavers, Utes Tie In 15
May 10, 2015 | Baseball
CORVALLIS, Ore. – The 22nd-ranked Oregon State baseball team played 15 innings against Utah Sunday afternoon at Goss Stadium at Coleman Field, but the game ended in a 2-2 tie due to the Utes' travel schedule.
Scotland Church pitched 4 1/3 scoreless innings for the Beavers, striking out three while allowing two walks and two hits. He would have been the pitcher of record if the game had ended with a decision.
Brock Duke tossed 8 1/3 scoreless innings against the Beavers in a relief outing for Utah. He allowed six hits but the Beavers were unable to get the winning run across against the right-hander.
OSU went the last 10 innings without scoring a run. Caleb Hamilton drove in the game's first run in the fifth on a triple, then scored when Michael Gretler hit a sacrifice fly.
The game stayed 2-0 in favor of the Beavers until the eighth when Josh Rose hit a two-run home run, accounting for Utah's offensive output on the day. The home run came off Oregon State starter, Travis Eckert, who worked 8 2/3 innings. He scattered four hits and two runs.
His counterpart, Jayson Rose, allowed two hits and two unearned runs in 6 2/3 innings.
Hamilton paced the Beavers offensively, collecting a career-high four hits. OSU tallied eight overall.
The tie game is the first for Oregon State since the 1998 season.
