The Beavers went 56-6 last season
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Make that three preseason No. 2 rankings for the Oregon State baseball team.
Â
D1Baseball.com released its top 25, and like Collegiate Baseball and Perfect Game, the Beavers will find themselves at No. 2 to open 2018 by the online publication, trailing only Florida.
Â
Texas Tech (No. 3), Arkansas and Florida State round out the top five.
Â
Oregon State finished the 2017 season ranked third after advancing to the College World Series, where the Beavers were one of four teams remaining. OSU set a school record with 56 wins – 31 of which came at Goss Stadium at Coleman Field – and the pitching staff led the nation with a 1.93 earned run average. That also set a school record, bettering the 2014 staff's 2.28 mark.
