Oregon State Notables
• Oregon State and Southern Miss are meeting for the first time.
• Ethan Kleinschmit, Saturday's probable starter, has struck out 40 in 29 1/3 career innings in neutral-site games. He has scattered 16 hits and 14 runs for a 2.45 earned run average.
• Dax Whitney's 17 strikeouts Friday tied the Oregon State single-game record set previously by Mason Smith in 1994 versus Portland and Cooper Hjerpe in 2022 against Stanford.
• The 17 strikeouts were also the most ever at Dell Diamond at any level of baseball. The stadium opened in 2000.
• OSU tallied 21 strikeouts in the win, a season-high that surpassed the team's 18 versus Arizona in Surprise. The team's single-game record is 23 against Washington State in a 16-inning game in 2019.
• The 21 mark the most ever in a nine-inning game, set in 2017 versus Portland and 1941 versus Idaho.
• Oregon State's staff has 74 strikeouts in 46 innings this season. Opponents have 39 hits and 20 walks for a 1.28 WHIP.
• OSU's starters have 42 strikeouts in 24 1/3 innings, scattering 13 hits and nine walks while surrendering just three runs. That's a 1.11 earned run average and 0.90 WHIP.
• Easton Talt now has two go-ahead or game-winning hits over the first five games of the season. He did so first against Arizona via a double, then yesterday against Baylor.
• Talt is now the lone Beaver to hit safely in all five games this season. He, AJ Singer and Nyan Hayes have all reached base safely in every game.
• Oregon State has scored first in all five games this season.
• Friday's win marked the first time this season that the Beavers have out-hit an opponent.
• Albert Roblez has struck out eight in four innings, earning a pair of saves. The righty has given up five hits and a run without issuing a walk.

• The Beavers were the visiting club in Friday night's game, a first in 2026. Oregon State will be the home team on Saturday and Sunday.
