“Oregon State baseball’s NCAA Corvallis Regional matchup versus UC Irvine Sunday was suspended in the fourth inning due to rain. The game will resume Monday at 12:06 p.m. PT,” Oregon State wrote in their release. “The Beavers lead the game 6-4 and the game will resume with one out and a runner on first base for UC Irvine in the bottom of the fourth.”

Oregon State then immediately responded at the top of the second. They too hit a three-run home run as Elijah Hainline went the distance after UC Irvine walked two batters themselves. A combination of fly-outs, hits, and wild pitches then allowed two more to score to take the lead at 5-4.
Both teams may have preferred to finish the game tonight in order to go ahead and either advance to the Super Regional or prepare for the final matchup instead. Still, the rain had other ideas with action set to resume on Monday instead.
