Huskies Drop Opener At No. 2 Oregon State, 3-1
March 22, 2024 | Baseball
CORVALLIS, Ore. βΒ Husky pitching held the Oregon State offense to a meager three hits on Friday but Washington was unable to capitalize on its scoring chances, dropping game one of the series, 3-1, at Goss Stadium.
Β
Jared Engman took the loss, allowing three runs on three hits over five innings. Grant Cunningham threw three hitless innings of relief.
Β
After a scoreless first from the Huskies, Oregon State jumped ahead immediately, taking a 1-0 lead on a Travis Bazzana leadoff home run.
Β
Engman and company stranded a pair of Beavers on in the first and second but OSU was able to add on in the third, scoring a pair to extend the lead to 3-0.
Β
After leaving a man in scoring position in each of the first three innings, the Huskies broke through in the fifth. Carson Ohland led off the frame with a walk, eventually coming around to score when Aiva Arquette poked an RBI single up the middle.
Β
However, the Huskies couldn't keep the momentum going as the Beavers grabbed the advantage in the series.
Β
Washington and Oregon State will square off in game two at Goss Stadium at 2:05 p.m. PT on Saturday. The game will be available for streaming through Pac-12 Insider.
