Last Game
Mikey Kane drove in a season-high four runs to send Oregon State to an 11-4 win over Utah Sunday in front of 4,014 fans at Goss Stadium at Coleman Field. With the win, the Beavers took the final two games against the Utes, winning the series. Kane doubled home two runs in the first, doubled in another run in the fifth and reached on an infield single in the eighth to record his fourth RBI of the afternoon. Kane's three hits served as a game-high for the Beavers' offense, which recorded 17, the team's most in Pac-12 Conference play this season.
