Posted May 27, 20232 yr Administrator It was great, bounce back pitching from a freshman, and studly relief pitching, and hits at the most important time! —————— Pac-12 Tournament Champions - University of Oregon Athletics GODUCKS.COM Oregon beats Arizona 5-4 to claim the title and an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament We have a great story with a State of Oregon player in sophomore catcher Bennett Thompson from Medford, who began to play more as the season went on and is now batting .383? Whew! He has had some important hits for us, and it needs to continue! Another player who played sparingly and now cannot be out of the line-up is freshman Drew Smith who came in at third base when Sabin Ceballos was hurt, did a fantastic job, and is batting so well at .397 that he is our DH and a future star! Again...seven of the nine starters last night are hitting over .300 and one who was not, Gavin Grant, went 4-5 at the plate last night. Fun team to watch! Can the pack of freshman pitchers come through again? Mr. FishDuck
May 27, 20232 yr On my Xfinity channel guide the schedule has never strayed from showing a 7pm slot for the Pac-12 Championship game. This is good, because I do not have ESPNU. Anytime the Ducks play on that channel, which happens a bit in basketball, I'm out of luck!

But again, my Infinity TV listing does not show the game on ESPN2, but shows it on ESPNU at 7 PM. I am recording on both channels to be on the safe side. I like to record and then start watching later to zip through the commercials. Mr. FishDuck

May 28, 20232 yr Moderator Ducks up 4-3 bottom of 7. Great game, really good pitching, inside the park homer by Romero of Arizona and a towering HR by Walsh over the R centerfield wall. 6 outs to go. Go Ducks! Edited May 28, 20232 yr by EastBayDuckDad Wrong player
May 28, 20232 yr Well I didn't see this coming after getting absolutely shellacked by UW at home in one of the worst series I've seen from the Ducks. They bounced back, got right in the last two games against Utah, then got enough pitching to allow their awesome offense to do their thing, congrats to the team!
May 28, 20232 yr Moderator Awesome game! Pac12 champion Oregon Ducks. Let's hope they get a regional NCAA berth at PK.

May 28, 20232 yr Moderator Oregon edges out Arizona to win Pac-12 tournament title DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Key defensive plays and big hits propelled Oregon past Arizona 5-4 to win the Pac-12 tournament.
May 28, 20232 yr Go Ducks! I have a couple colleagues at work who are beavers and I know they probably won't appreciate this so I'll try not to rub it in too much. Especially when baseball is their sport. Talk about building a program at Oregon. Baseball went from non-existent to winning the conference in a relatively short time.
May 28, 20232 yr I still want the Ducks to finally make it to the College World Series, they did appear once in 1954 tho.
