SEATTLE  –  George Mendazona hit a lead-off home run in the 11^th inning to lead the visiting, seventh-ranked Oregon State Beavers to ta 4-3 win over Washington, Sunday at Husky Ballpark. The Beavers (19-5-1, 6-3 Pac-12) earned a sweep of the three-games series and the Huskies (14-9, 5-4) have now dropped four-straight games.
 
The Huskies looked poised to walk-off the Beavers an inning earlier when they loaded the bases with no outs, but Jake Mullholland (1-0) was able to get a fielder's choice at home, followed by a strikeout and fielder's choice to force the game into the 11^th.
 
Mullholland allowed the tying run to reach in the bottom half of the 11^th, but the lefty got Ramon Bramasco to roll into a 6-4-3 double play to end the game.
 
The end result spoiled another fabulous outing on the hill by Josh Burgmann and a phenomenal game by Nick Kahle. Burgmann struck out a career high 13 batters – which is also the most by a Pac-12 pitcher in 2019 – and Kahle was 4 for 5 with a home run, double and all three runs batted in by the Huskies.
 
More than three hours before the ending, the Huskies wasted little time getting ahead of the Beavers, taking a 1-0 lead in the first inning on a Kahle run-scoring single. Kahle's team-leading 27^th RBI gave the Huskies their first lead of the three-game series.
 
UW's first lead didn't last long, though, as Oregon State tied the score back up, 1-1, in the second. Ryan Ober, who reached via a one-out double, scored with two outs when Burgmann threw a wild pitch that Kahle couldn't corral.
 
Burgmann cruised through four innings, recording seven-straight outs via the strikeout at one point, but he ran into some trouble in the fifth. He gave up a hit and walk before shortstop Beau Philip delivered a two-out triple into the right field corner that gave OSU a 3-1 advantage.
 
The junior from Nanaimo, B.C., would strike out the side in the sixth, but with 118 pitches under his belt his day was done. The redshirt-sophomore left trailing 3-1 after six innings of work. He allowed three hits and walked four to go along with his 13 strikeouts.
 
The game remained 3-1 in OSU's advantage until the bottom of the eighth when Kahle stepped up and hit a two-run home run the opposite way over the right-field fence. After a walk to Braiden Ward, Kahle took an elevated 3-2 pitch from Dylan Pearce and rode it out for his fourth homer of the season to tie the game, 3-3.
 
It marked the second Sunday in a row in which he accounted for the all the Huskies' runs batted in.
 
Stevie Emanuels (2-3) threw a career high five innings in relief. He allowed three hits – including the 11^th inning homer – and struck out two.
 
Washington outhit Oregon State, 8-6, with Kahle accounting for half of the team's hits. For the series, Kahle was 5 for 12 (.417) at the plate with five RBI. He also threw out four Beavers' runners trying to steal second over the weekend.
