Oregon is hitting at a team clip of .363 on the season and will welcome back Left Fielder Janie Takeda this weekend. She will play Offense only and not in the field following a shoulder separation suffered two weeks ago against Washington. Arizona State is hitting at .321 this season.

The Sun Devils bring some power at the plate and have hit eight grand slams this season. According to ASU’s Twitter Notes, Arizona State is also the only school to have a winning record over Oregon since 2010. Arizona State had a midweek tuneup in playing double headers against UTEP and New Mexico State on Monday and Tuesday of this week. The Sundevils won three of four, two by run rule in five innings.

The three game series begins at Howe Field on Friday at 1pm, Game 2 is set for Saturday at 5:30, and Game 3 is set for Sunday at Noon.
