LD to right. Nice play turns it into easy F9. pop up F9. 2 down. LD double down the lie. Fair by 6 inches. 125 pitches. Nate with the hook. Luke gets standing O. 3rd Quatro. Eisert. Pop up F8. Kwan runs of Madrigal. Time for some pop at the plate beaver style. This guy cant stiff us again.

Yes, top of the order. Line drives the rest of the way, gappers or tweeters.

Kwan on. SS makes great play to get to it, then throws it away. I say error, TV says infield hit. Don't know official. Sac bunt. Kwan to 2. Madrigal 4-3. Kwan to 3. 2 out. Larnach F7. Kwan stranded.
Top of order hasn't done squat today. But, Bird has pitched well.

One down. soft LD to left center base hit 6-4-3 ball game. 2-0 Beavs. huge. huge to beat Jake Bird on his best day. huge to beat the ruins just when they started hitting the ball. Eisert comes in and throws a no spin off speed pitch that fooled crydler so bad for strike number 2 you could see his confidence fading. great baseball game.

Well played game. Good umpiring. Can't beat that on a beautiful Thursday evening.

Just your typical OSU-UCLA low scoring pitching duel. Liked how Luke didn't try to force strike outs after the fourth inning when the Bruins weren't getting fooled.
As for the 'OSU leads the conference in double plays', this happens when a few guys (Adley, Larnach, Malone) don't bunt in the line up when they're batting in typical bunting situations (1 on or 2 on with no outs). I understand the reasoning, can you really take their bats out of their hands? I recall Conforto hardly bunting at all, some players are just too good to take the bats out, and you just run with the risk of a GIDP.

I recall Conforto hardly bunting at all, some players are just too good to take the bats out, and you just run with the risk of a GIDP. Agree. The other requirement for a double play is to have players on base. If you have a very high on base percentage like the Beavers then statistically you will have more double plays against. A true measure would be how often your team hits into a double play when it is possible compared to others.

Bird was really good. He had so much movement on his pitches it was hard to make good contact. I can see why he had a sub 2 era heading into the game. Very difficult to square up. Glad to get the win with timely hits.

Fuskies leading Furd 4-0 (and should be 7-0 ... but for a perfectly timed leaping above the fence robbery of a 3-run homer), heading to the bottom of the 4th. Now 6-0 Huskies in 8th. Friday, already interesting, becomes more so.

Pups win 7-0.
Cougs over Utes 14-5 Az over tsdtr 10-2 (renew GH!) ASU over Cal 5-4
in out of conference CSUN over USC 2-1
Beavs still mathmatically have a shot. Pups need to sweep and Beavs need to sweep
If Pups sweep do they have a shot at the playoffs? They are currently 65 gaining 6 spots with the win over Stanford. RPI of 65 says no. But could they gain enough ground with a couple more? IMO unlikely. But tied 2nd in the Pac 12?

But could they gain enough ground with a couple more? IMO unlikely. But tied 2nd in the Pac 12? If Washington sweeps and Oregon State loses one, the Huskies win the Pac-12. So, yes. If Washington sweeps Stanford, the Huskies' RPI is about 57. If Washington goes 2-1, the Huskies' RPI goes up a spot or two. If Stanford rebounds to take the series, the Huskies RPI goes down about three spots. I doubt Washington gets a bid with a series loss to Stanford, but you would have to imagine that the Huskies will get a look with a series win against the Cardinal. A wrinkle is Arizona and the Wildcats' #11 non-conference RPI. (Washington's non-conference RPI is 169.) It is hard to imagine only three Pac-12 teams making the Tournament. But it is also hard to imagine Arizona and Washington both getting a berth (even though they both should). If Arizona craters, that might increase Washington's chances to get an at large berth.
