Last Game
Alex McGarry had two hits, including a ninth-inning home run, but Oregon State was unable to overcome an early 4-0 Mississippi State lead in a 7-4 loss to the Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon. Kyler McMahan and Troy Claunch each had two hits apiece, with the latter driving in a run in the Beavers' two-run fourth inning.
