Rain suspends Oregon State baseball vs. UC Irvine Corvallis Regional final play till Monday

The Oregon State Beavers baseball team is now one win away from securing a trip to the NCAA super regionals.

Oregon State topped UC Irvine, 5-3, at Goss Stadium on Saturday to advance to the Corvallis Regional final. The Beavers got big performances from Travis Bazzana, Dallas Macias, and Jacob Kmatz that helped propel them past the Anteaters in front of a home crowd of 4,224.

The Beavers’ Corvallis Regional final against UC Irvine began at 6 p.m. Sunday but was suspended due to rain and will resume at 12:06 p.m. Monday.

OSU leads UC Irvine 6-4 and the game will resume in the bottom of the fourth inning Monday.

UC Irvine beat Tulane Sunday afternoon to earn a spot in the regional final and a rematch with the Beavers.

Then, Dub Gleed launched a no-doubt, three-run homer into the right field bleachers to make it 4-0.
