0-0 after the first inning. Oregon's Colin Clarke comes in with a great ERA at 2.55, but the Indiana pitcher has a lower one at 1.96 and both snuffed the batters in the first inning.

Damn. Another low-scoring nail-biter!

1-0 Ducks after two innings. Collin Clarke is feeling the warmth of the sunshine in Eugene, as he is getting hot. He kept them scoreless for another inning, and has a low pitch count.

Drew Smith hit a welcome homer over the CF wall, as runs will be tough against Hoosier pitchers.

2-1 Ducks after three innings. Collin Clarke gave up a homer, but finished out the others and he only has 45 pitches into three innings--so perhaps he can stretch to seven?

Portland's own Ryan Cooney nailed a liner over the LF wall to help Oregon take the lead!

5-1 Ducks after four innings. Collin Clarke has such an awesome changeup that looks like a fastball coming at you. Only 60 pitches through four innings, and I'd love to see him go seven, bring in Tanner Bradley for an inning and finish off with Devin Bell like yesterday.

Drew Smith gets in a 0-2 hole, but pulls out a walk to get on base. Then Angel Laya hits a two-run dinger over the RF wall!

Brayden Jaksa drills one to the LF corner for a double, and then moved to third on a groundout. Ryan Cooney beats the throw to first on a slow infield hit to score Jaksa!

5-1 Ducks after five innings. Geez...Collin Clarke put out two batters in three pitches, but got in a jam with two hits and then closed out the inning. He has 75 pitches at this point.
