Oregon State, 43-13, meets Yale, 30-14-1, on Saturday at PK Park in Eugene with its NCAA tournament run on the line.
First pitch is set for 1:06 p.m. PT, with right-hander Eric Segura, 5-2 with a 2.31 ERA, scheduled to start against Yale's Tate Evans, 7-1 with a 2.71 ERA.
The elimination matchup follows Oregon State's 3-2 loss to Washington State on Friday, when the Beavers struck out 16 but fell on an eighth-inning double.
That outing pushed Oregon State's season strikeout total to 662—15 short of the program record—while the Beavers also matched a postseason single-game mark with five doubles.
Oregon State won both prior meetings with Yale at the 2017 Corvallis Regional by a combined 19-1 and is 51-30 all-time in NCAA Regional games.
