portlandtribune.com/pt/12-sports/362743-241999-together-beavers-pull-out-a-win-over-vanderbilt-in-ncaa-super-regionalSome good recap of the game...summary of pitching stuff later in it, key takeaways: Things don't get easier for Oregon State, though, through the rest of the Super Regional, which would continue Sunday with a Vanderbilt win Saturday night.
Heimlich won't be pitching. Sophomore Drew Rasmussen, who lasted only four innings in a win over Yale in last weekend's regional, is dealing with soreness from a hematoma in his pitching arm after being hit by a line drive the previous week against Abilene Christian. His availability is day to day.
If Rasmussen can't pitch, that leaves sophomore right-hander Bryce Fehmel, who lost his starting rotation spot to Rasmussen after several ineffective starts in April and early May, as Saturday's probable starter.
"We have two options — Fehmel and Raz," Casey said. "We'll go with one of those guys."
OSU has several capable arms behind them, including freshman left-hander Brandon Eisert and sophomore right-hander Sam Tweedt, who closed Friday night and got his first save of the season.
"We have a fresh bullpen, plenty of arms," Casey said. "There are going to have to be some people who step up."

LH needs, and deserves, to go in. Period.

Per the article, Casey was throwing LH yesterday until Luke decided not to.

So it was Eggers that asked Nick and KJ about Luke and who got the visceral physical response from Case. Yeesh.

LH needs, and deserves, to go in. Period. Luke was the first one to greet Jake when he came off the mound last night. Maybe an extra long hug(?) Maybe with some time to process the news he will be able to go sometime in the post season
