Beavers Capture Non-Conference Civil War in 12th
Oregon scored three runs on Oregon State miscues early, and the score was tied at three-all until the top of the 12th inning when the Beavers forced in a run. The Beavs shut down the Ducks in the bottom of the frame for a 4-3 non-conference win in Eugene last night.
Former Siuslaw hurler Jake Thompson pitched the sixth inning, facing four batters.
