I remember Rutschman was the only runner to reach in the 4.1 innings that Caden O'Brien pitched back in 2018 College World Series against North Carolina. Oregon State got four runners on over the first four innings. Couldn't do anything with any of the four, though. I would remind everyone that Chris Coskey, who was the home plate umpire tonight, was the second base umpire, who screwed up that call on Rutschman in Game 1 of the 2018 College World Series Championship Series. It should have been Oregon State up 2-0 with a runner on first and one out. Instead it was 1-0 and a runner on third with two outs. Coskey was the right field umpire in Game Three in 2018, but I do not think that Oregon State has seen him since. I would also add that Coskey made a similarly bad, though nowhere near as bad, call in the second Mississippi State game back in 2013. The dude seems to enjoy calling Beavs out, when the Beavs play SEC teams. I may be misunderstanding your post, Wilky, but I thought Coskey did a good job behind the plate tonight. The first Bazzana strikeout was not a strikeout. "Strike three" was outside.

And the MM strikeout on a walk pitch was brutal, but I would still grade him above most Pac12 umpires. He also missed on a couple of Arkansas guys, but nothing terribly egregious.

It's ironic that Verle Sorgen made the word "egregious" part of the Beavers lexicon.
