Oregon baseball picks back up Tuesday evening, starting a two-game home series against Gonzaga. The series with the Bulldogs will be part of a five-game homestand, the final three coming this weekend against the Beavers. Oregon is coming off a sweep of Ohio State and has been victorious in 12 of their last 13 games. [...]

How good is Oregon pitching? In the 30 innings the Ducks spent at Bill Davis Stadium this weekend, the Buckeyes managed to plate just one run. On Sunday, it was Jake Reed on the mound turning in seven scoreless innings before handing the ball to Christian Jones for the eighth. Oregon’s Mr. Consistency, Jimmie Sherfy, [...]

It took 22 innings, but Oregon’s bats finally came alive and allowed the team to take a lead over UCLA — once again avoided a sweep — and win 5-3 on Sunday in the final game of the series on a three RBI triple from Scott Heineman. “Obviously we struggled to score runs this weekend [...]

Oregon lost their first of three games against Arizona State in Tempe, Ariz., Friday night in a 6-5 loss. Oregon rallied back from a four-run deficit to put the game into extra innings, but eventually gave up an RBI single to pinch hitter RJ Ybarra in the bottom of the 11th inning to end the [...]

Going into the season, Oregon pitching had defined itself as the top aspect of the team and had higher expectations than the offense, and probably even the defense. Jake Reed was coming off of a strong freshman year when he went 8-4 with 15 starts and a 2.92 ERA and took on the role of [...]

Oregon took the first of a two-game series at PK Park against Texas State 4-3 Tuesday night. Jeff Gold got the start and went six innings, giving up three earned runs while striking out five. The Ducks again didn’t have loud bats, they collected five hits, but they were effective and took advantage of the [...]

A day after beating No. 10 Cal State Fullerton to avoid becoming a sweep victim, the No. 15 Ducks are back in action at PK Park against Cal State Northridge. Northridge comes to Eugene after narrowly avoiding a sweep. The Matadors beat Washington State to snap a five game skid including the first three games [...]

You wouldn’t know it from walking outside, but spring is almost here. Sure, Oregon winter will roll straight on through to July like it usually does, but, technically, spring exists. The only reminder of spring in Eugene may be George Horton and the No. 14 Ducks. Oregon is off to a 7-1 start with series wins [...]

Numbers never lie, and the numbers would indicate that the George Horton got one hell of an outing from his pitching staff in the Ducks 3-1 over Portland. Christian Jones got things started, making his first start since May of 2011 after recovering from Tommy John surgery. Jones was on a controlled start and threw just [...]

Oregon wraps up its first homestand of 2013 this evening against Portland in the first of four meetings between the two teams. Lefthander Christian Jones is set to make his first start of the season for the Ducks with Kody Watts on the mound for Portland. It will be Jones’ first start in 21 months [...]

Oregon got a strong 6-1 win behind freshman pitcher Cole Irvin in the third and final game of their series against Loyola Marymount to win the series 2-1 and improve to 6-1 on the year. Irvin, who was in command for the majority of the game, hit a rough patch in the fourth inning when [...]

Oregon, fresh off a 4-0 start to the season, had their home opener spoiled by LMU despite their ace, Jake Reed, on the mound. Loyola Marymount beat up Reed to earn a 7-2 win. The Ducks started off hot both on the mound and at the plate, loading the bases in both the first and [...]

Oregon (4-0) looks to continue their hot start this weekend when they take on Loyola Marymount (2-2) at PK Park. Oregon’s first series came on the road against Hawaii, where the team hit .293. Their starting pitching combined for a 2.50 ERA, including Jake Reed’s seven shutout innings in the season opener. Jake Reed will again [...]

To open its 2013 campaign, Oregon’s Jake Reed tossed six scoreless innings, with the bullpen finishing off the shutout as they beat the University of Hawaii 3-0 in Honolulu. The Ducks got the scoring started in the second on a J.J. Altobelli walk, then added a run each in the fifth and seventh innings. Oregon [...]

It’s a grind, the baseball team will tell you. Up to five games per week while balancing a full course load; it isn’t easy. But nobody will be particularly sympathetic this weekend as the Ducks play their first four games of 2013 in Hawaii for the third year in a row. Oregon enters the year with [...]

Baseball season is upon Eugene again. The team that came so close to heading to Omaha last season will have another shot. With Jimmie Sherfy, J.J. Altobelli, and Jake Reed, there are many reasons to be excited about the season. Here are five: Techno Chicken At times last season, the Ducks seemed to be destined [...]

Coach Horton talks about Sherfy’s maturity and Altobelli’s skills as shortstop. Oregon Baseball pitcher Christian Jones talks about his role and the excitement about starting play in Hawaii. J.J. Altobelli talks about the excitement leading up to the season and the potential of the team.

Legendary baseball manager Casey Stengel once famous said, “Most ball games are lost, not won.” Despite the Ducks’ program-best 46-19 record and a brief spell as the nation’s No. 1 team last season, it was the game they didn’t win that has lingered over the program. After earning the right to host a Super Regional [...]
