Last Game
Billy King's eighth-inning pinch hit home run sent the Beavers to a 9-3 win over Kansas Saturday afternoon at Surprise Stadium. King's blast found the bullpen in right, and drove in three, pushing the Beavers to the come-from-behind victory. Travis Eckert scattered seven hits and two runs over six innings but did not get the win. That went to Bryce Fehmel, who improved to 3-0 after throwing 1 1/3 scoreless innings.
Radio In Portland

Quite The Week For King

• His pinch hit home run was the Beavers' first since Joe Gillette against Portland in May of last season.
• King's four RBI against Kansas set a career-high for the junior, surpassing the three he had against Oregon in 2015.
The Offense
• Oregon State leads the Pac-12 Conference in both hits (89) and runs (64). Oregon State is averaging better than 12 hits and nine runs per game.

Multi-Hit Efforts
• Oregon State's offense has combined for 31 multi-hit efforts by 11 different players this season.
• Trever Morrison and Kyle Nobach each have five to lead the team.
Fehmel Early On
• Could Bryce Fehmel challenge Sam Gaviglio's 10 wins in 2009 as the single-season OSU freshman record?
• It's early, but after just seven games, he's 3-0. Two of the wins have come this week.
• The freshman has appeared in a team-leading five games and has allowed three hits in six innings of work.
Singles
