Oregon scores walk-off win in extra innings over Penn State
Oregon had the battle out of an early hole, but the Ducks earned a walk-off victory in extras over Penn State to clinch a series win.
Once again, it didn't come easy for the Oregon Ducks (31-11, 14-6 Big Ten), but they managed to put another series win in their pocket on Saturday, taking down the Penn State Nittany Lions (12-28, 5-15 Big Ten) in a 5-4 extra-innings walk-off win. After falling behind early on, the Ducks sent game two of the series to extra innings and faced a do-or-die situation in the 10th inning. With the bases loaded and two outs, Jack Brooks drew a walk-off walk in a full count to force the winning run home and seal another series victory for the Ducks.

Oregon starter Collin Clarke had a bumpy start, allowing four runs in the first inning, highlighted by a two-run home run by Penn State's Spencer Barnett. In a 4-0 hole, the Ducks responded with a run of their own in the bottom of the inning, courtesy of an RBI groundout from Angel Laya .
The talented Oregon freshman wasn't done, ripping a two-out RBI double the other way in the third inning to cut the deficit in half. After a shaky start, Clarke was able to settle in for work through 5 ā innings, allowing seven hits but keeping Penn State off the scoreboard after the ugly first inning. He managed to tally four strikeouts as well before handing the game over to the bullpen.
