Turley Goes 4-For-4 But Beavers Drop Pac-12 Tournament Opener
May 24, 2023 | Baseball
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Gavin Turley went 4-for-4 with three doubles and three runs batted in but Oregon State was edged, 13-12, by Arizona Wednesday in the Beavers' first game at the 2023 Pac-12 Tournament.
Oregon (39-17 overall) next plays Arizona State Thursday at 10 a.m. PT and must win to have a chance to advance to the semifinals.
Turley doubled the first three times he came to the plate, and then singled home what was then the game-tying run in the eighth. OSU, with the game tied at 12, had an opportunity to ahead in the ninth with runners on the corners and no outs but was unable to push across the go-ahead run.
Arizona (32-23) then put two on in the bottom half of the ninth, and Kiko Romero drove a 3-1 pitch back up the middle off Ryan Brown for the game-winner.
Brown took the loss, dropping to 4-2. Arizona's Chris Barraza, who got out of the ninth-inning jam, got the win to improve to 5-2.
Tyce Peterson drove home run three runs for the Beavers, on a 2-for-4 day, while Mikey Kane went 2-for-6 with two RBI. Mason Guerra also collected three hits for OSU, which finished with 17 on the day.
The Beavers went up 4-0 in the first thanks to two-run singles by both Kane and Peterson. OSU eventually led 8-6 before the Wildcats put up six in the sixth. OSU, however, bounced back with two in the seventh, and two more in the eighth, first on a double by Guerra and then Turley's single.
Ben Ferrer started for the Beavers and allowed eight hits and five runs over 3 1/3 innings. He did not figure in the decision. Nor did his counterpart, Cam Walty, who scattered nine hits and six runs in three innings.
Next Up
The Beavers continue play at the Pac-12 Tournament Thursday against Arizona State. First pitch at Scottsdale Stadium is set for 10 a.m. PT. It will air live on the Pac-12 Networks.
