Photos: Oregon softball gets rained out, tie Sun Devils 2-2

In their final home game of the 2013-2014 regular season, the No. 1 ranked Oregon Ducks tied the No. 3 Arizona Sun Devils 2-2 in the final game of the three-game series on Sunday, May 4, 2014 at Howe Field in Eugene. The Sun Devils took the first game of the series, beating the Ducks 4-2 on Friday. On Saturday the Ducks came back with a vengeance, blowing out the Sun Devils 12-2 in a game that ended after the sixth inning due to the mercy rule. The rain fell hard on Howe Field on Sunday, causing two rain delays in which the field tarp had to be brought out. Both teams scored their two runs in the fifth inning. Oregon had a chance to beat the Sun Devils after the second rain delay in the bottom of the sixth inning, but were unable to capitalize.

The Ducks head to Tucson, Arizona on Thursday, May 8th to take on the Wildcats in their final series in the regular season.

Denver then went for four unanswered points until Oregon junior midfielder Olivia Pyne scored at 16:52 in the first half. Oregon would eventually give up seven more points to the Pioneers, losing 11-5.

The Oregon Ducks baseball team (29-10, 8-5 Pac-12) hosted the University of Washington Cougars  (17-17, 7-6)  in a rainy matchup at PK Park in Eugene on Thursday, April 17. The Ducks came off a close win against the University of San Diego Toreros on Monday, barely beating them 4-3. During Thursday’s game, steady rain kept the Cougars at bay. There was a ten-minutes rain delay at the bottom of the seventh inning when the Ducks already held a substantial lead against the Cougars 11-0.

The Ducks will play their second game of their three game series against the Cougars tomorrow night at 6 p.m. at PK Park in Eugene, Ore.
