Play-by-play recap: Oregon 10 Iowa 0 (F/7)

The biggest series for Iowa Baseball in over three decades is off to a deflating start. On Thursday night, the visiting Oregon Ducks hit four home runs and picked up a run-rule 10-0 win in seven innings. It’s the first run-rule loss of the season for Iowa.
With the loss, the Hawkeyes fall to 32-18-1 overall and 21-7 in Big Ten play. Iowa has now lost six of their last eight games. They will look to avoid a third consecutive series loss on Friday night, with Aaron Savary on the mound.
