Last Game
Kyle Dernedde homered, Brady Kasper drove in three and three pitchers held UC Santa Barbara to three hits with nine strikeouts as Oregon State ended its trip to Arizona with an 11-0 win over the Gauchos Monday at Surprise Stadium. Oregon State utilized a six-run third inning to get ahead big early on. The Beavers' first seven batters all singled, with Brady Kasper driving in a pair and Gavin Turley, Garret Forrester and Mikey Kane all tallying one RBI. AJ Lattery made his first start – and second appearance – of the season for the Beavers, and the righty scattered three hits in four innings of work before giving way to Ian Lawson to start the fifth. Ian Lawson, meanwhile, had three solid innings of relief for the Beavers, and punctuated his outing by striking out the side in the seventh. The righty picked up the win, his first of the season and fifth of his career. He ended the day with six strikeouts in three innings of work.
Oregon State Notes
• Oregon State is meeting Coppin State for the first time.
• Coppin State is a member of the Mideastern-Athletic Conference but its baseball team plays in the Northeast Conference. OSU has never played a current member of the NEC, but swept a four-game series from former member Bryant in 2013. Bryant just left for the America East.
• Travis Bazzana is 6 for his last 10 after opening the season 1-for-7. He has a double, triple and two RBI over his last two games.
• Garret Forrester, meanwhile, has five hits over seven at bats in his last two games. He has a double, home run and four RBI over that stretch.
• Newcomer Mikey Kane has hit safely in all four games this season. He and Brady Kasper are the only two Beavers to do so this season.
• Speaking of Kasper, he has a six-game hit streak dating back to last season. Kasper is 7-for-20 over that stretch. He ended the trip to Arizona with two hits for his first career multi-hit effort.
• The Beavers scored first in three of the four games in Arizona.
• Oregon State's starters combined to strike out 19 while allowing just three walks in 17 innings in Surprise.
• Oregon State has won 18 of its last 19 home openers dating back to 2003. The last home-opening loss was to UC Santa Barbara in 2020.
• Mitch Canham needs seven victories to reach 100 leading Oregon State. He is 93-52 (.641) in four seasons at OSU.
• OSU has yet to allow a run in the first or ninth inning this season.
• Nine of the 20 runs allowed by the Beavers have come in the seventh. Five of those nine came in the win over Minnesota.
