Singer’s Career Night Paces OSU To Series-Clinching Win At San Diego
March 14, 2026 | Baseball
SAN DIEGO, Calif. – AJ Singer hit a grand slam and a three-run home run, driving in eight runs, to send 18th-ranked Oregon State to an 11-5 win over San Diego Saturday night at Fowler Park.
Â
Singer's eight RBI were one shot of equaling Ken Bowen's program-record nine in 1985 at Chico State.
Â
The win pushed Oregon State (13-4 overall) to an eight-game win streak and the Beavers have clinched the series versus the Toreros (7-11). OSU has also now won 11 consecutive games against San Diego (7-11), improving to 16-10 all-time in the series.
Â
Bryce Hubbard drove in the Beavers' first three runs of the game. He singled in a pair in the first, then was hit by the first pitch he saw with the bases loaded in the second. That set up Singer's first home run of the night, a grand slam to left on a 3-2 pitch that went 352 feet.
Â
Singer picked up his fifth RBI – setting up a career-high – by drawing a bases-loaded walk in the third. It was one of 10 free bases via walks for Oregon State, which also advanced to first on five hit by pitches.
Â
Singer, who came into the game with three RBI in the first 16 games, drove in his sixth, seventh and eighth runs of the game on a three-run blast to left in the seventh. This home run went 381 feet.
Â
Oregon State recorded eight hits in the win, with Singer, Paul Vazquez and Easton Talt all recording two.
Â
Ethan Kleinschmit started for the Beavers and worked five full in his fifth start of the season. He held San Diego to a run on six hits and a pair of walks while striking out nine. He got the win, improving to 2-2 on the season.
Â
Kleinschmit's counterpart, Kyle Bade, did not last long. A lefty, he gave up four hits and six runs with three walks in 1 2/3 innings. He took the loss, dropping to 0-2 on the year.
Â
Oregon State and San Diego conclude their three-game series Sunday at 1 p.m. PT. Catch the game live on the Beaver Sports Network and ESPN+.
