Beavers get a series win and look for a sweep tommorow.

Jonnie Knoble 2 RBI and a homerun

OSU
Darwin Barney triple
Mitch Canham 2 for 2, 2 RBI and a homerun
John Wallace 2 for 3, 3 run homerun first of career
Joe Paterson 6 innings pitched 4 strikeouts

Wallace on first career homer-

Yeah, it feels great because I’ve been close a few times. It feels good to finally get one out.

On team-

We are starting to get into a grove. Everyone in the lineup is starting to hit it.

Canham on team hitting-

It’s good to see us come out excited and it’s fun to see the fans jump up and go crazy with us. Even they were a little tired after the first inning. The turf makes us hit line drives.

On six homeruns in two days-

I don’t know man. I haven’t seen the ball fly out of here like that in awhile this early. Good piece of hitting, getting the count and putting a good swing on it. Good weather and good swings.

Casey-

We did a nice job off the shoot. We were hoping we’d be a little more consistent in the middle innings
