You're right! Melton didn't nail that pitch and it was close!

Top of 6th
Ober at the plate. Fouls out. Dukart ready to make some noise. Flies out to left. Nice hit, but.... Forrester steps up. Fouls out to deep right.
Making good contact, but dammit we can't get them to fall.
Another 1, 2, 3 inning.

Irvine is 11-1 at home. They also have played 3 Pac12 teams prior to our series.
They swept Washington in February at home.
They went 1-2 @ UCLA & 1-2 @ Stanford.
It might be their best squad since 2014.

Washburn takes the mound against the Aunt Eaters.
(Stepped away for beer and rice crackers....Aunties get another run.)
A couple sacrifices and a K.

In other news, Oregon has the highest per capita growth of covid positives in the nation. I threw that in for other posters who are hoping to watch a baseball game in person for the next year in any sport. More beer.

We are making contact, sooner or later...it's getting later. Beavs down 4-1. It's gonna take ball > to bat > to open area on field if the Beavs are going to get back in this thing. No bones about it !

Do we have a pitcher who can pitch 6 or 7 innings? I don't see one.

Top of the 7th
Claunch...you know the drill...flies out to left. Casey...does what Casey is best at...strikes out looking. Armstrong grinds out a base hit to SS. Throwing error. Goes to 2nd. (That was about the dumbest throw I've seen.) Mekler drives a double to left center. Armstrong scores. McDowell...flies out directly to a stationary left fielder.

I'll be watching games at home and not because I give a rip about the Covid virus. I simple can't get tickets. Haven't been to Goss since a 2017 game on Sunday game against USC. KJ Harrison hit a HR over the leftfield fence. Jake Thompson struck out 10 or 11, we won like 10-1. I spilled a beer on my way back from Banners, but just kept walking. The weather was great and the win was beautiful.

WadeM may never be the guy, but he grinds. Not a great arm. Not great speed. Not a great glove or bat. But a grinder.
