Oregon Falls to Arizona With Five Errors and Eleven Left On Base

The Oregon Ducks continued their road trip on Friday night returning to Pac-12 play after starting a three game winning streak last weekend winning the finale against Arizona State at PK Park and sweeping UC Irvine on the road. That is where it would end.

Arizona would score five unearned runs off five Oregon errors.  Oregon was also able to get on-base against Arizona pitching, the Ducks had eleven hits, but left elven men on base in the loss. Jokob Goldfarb led the team with three hits, Brandon Cuddy also had three hits for the Ducks. On the mound Conor Harber had a solid performance in his first loss of the year.

Harber threw five and a third innings scattering seven hits and seven runs, but just two of them were earned. He also struck out seven Wildcats. With the loss Oregon falls into a tie for fifth place in the Conference with Washington and Utah. Oregon is now 17-9 on the season and need to win the final to games of the series against Arizona for an important series win.

Oregon will turn to David Peterson on Saturday in Game 2 of the three game series. First pitch is set for just after 7pm Pacific Time. The game will be broadcast on the Pac-12 Network.
