OSU 21, UCLA 21, bottom of 9th, one out. UCLA has scored 9 runs in bottom of ninth. Game is ~5 hours old. And now looking at extra innings and/or a second game...
Stanford Baseball TO THE CWS!

Both teams’ pitching should be running on fumes tomorrow, with or without a second game.

RUFKM? UCLA, down 21-12 bottom 9, has put up 9 runs to tie the game!

Beavers took the lead 22-21, now UCLA has runners at 2nd and 3rd with no outs. This is like Tee ball for 6 year olds!
Ooh boy, Oregon State did intentional BB to load bases. Then a balk!
This will likely mean another game. Their collective arms will be toast.
Just like that, UCLA hits a no out, two on HR. 25-22.

This is crazy! They are playing again, hopefully another 4 hour game. Haha

That was pretty much sealed by the sweep of U$C. That got the RPI up to #6 and made us champs of the Pac 12.
One win was some insurance.
Of interest, Stanford is now up to #3 in the RPI, behind Tennessee and Oregon State. Stanford could end up as high as the #2 overall seed for the tournament, though I don't think it matters much where among the top 8 they end up.

I still don't know what I think about the move of Matthews to the bullpen.
On the one hand he doesn't really seem to be a closer/bullpen type. While he has a good arm overall, it's not overwhelming velocity. He walks a lot of guys, almost 1/2 per inning - not good when you come in to get your team out of a jam. It also often seems like it takes a little while to get going [e.g. he came in against OSU he walked three in a row and a wild pitch to let in 4 runs, then blanked them the rest of the way.]
And it's certainly not that he can't start and go along way - he's had 7 outings over 100 pitches.
However, much more importantly, it's worked. Since he's moved to the bullpen, Stanford has been on a tear.
The key thing seems to be flexibility. He's in the bullpen if needed for Friday/Saturday, but if not he's available to start or at least pitch most of the game on Sunday.

OSU is starting Kmatz. He's their #2 (Saturday) starter who hadn't pitched in the tournament so far. Presumably, without UCLA's crazy comeback, we would have seen Kmatz tomorrow.

Exactly. Stanford should send bouquets to UCLA.

UCLA has just taken a 7-6 lead in the top of the 7th in their battle of attrition vs. OSU.
In his in-game interview, UCLA coach John Savage said that Stanford "must be laughing" about what has gone on all afternoon and evening for the Beavs & Bruins.
__________________________________________________________________
Stanford fans spotted in the crowd with a sign reading: "We want extra innings".
______________________________________________________________________________________________
10-1/2 hours, 62 runs, and 79 hits since they began play today, OSU walks off UCLA 8-7 in their second game.
Good thing that Stanford beat Arizona in the first game today. I don't know how they could have completed 4 games today given how the OSU-UCLA games went. Maybe curfew would have forced a game to be played tomorrow sometime before the 7pm championship game?
