Caraway's grand slam helps Oregon State beat Florida State 14-10, advance to CWS
The Beavers (47-14-1) advance to the College World Series for the eighth time in program history and the first since 2018, when Oregon State won the most recent of its CWS titles.
Krieg walked, Reeder was hit by a pitch and McEntire drew an eight-pitch walk to set up Caraway's slam and Turley's shot made it 13-3.
Zach Kmatz (2-0) gave up two runs over 2 2/3 relief innings.
Max Williams hit a two-run homer in the top of the first but Oregon State responded in the bottom. Reeder hit a three-run home run off starter Wes Mendes (7-3) before McEntire added a solo shot to that gave the Beavers a 7-2 lead.
Chase Williams hit a solo shot in the second for No. 9 seed Florida State (42-16). Lodise had an RBI in the fourth and, after Tyce Peterson responded with a solo homer for OSU, Jaxson West and Gage Harrelson each drove in a run in the fifth. Myles Bailey hit a two-run home run in the six to make it 14-8.
Brody DeLamielleure and Harrelson drove in a run apiece to cap the scoring in the ninth.
The Seminoles beat Oregon State 3-1 on Saturday to avoid elimination after the Beavers rallied to win the opener 5-4 in 10 innings.
Florida State played in its record 19th super regional and its 61 postseason appearances and 211 postseason wins are second in NCAA history, behind Texas with 259 wins in 64 appearances.

Lottie Woad takes 2-shot lead over Nelly Korda in pro debut at Women's Scottish Open
IRVINE, Scotland (AP) — Lottie Woad of England played bogey-free Friday and took advantage of unusually calm conditions toward the end to post a 7-under 65, giving the English star a two-shot lead over top-ranked Nelly Korda and Nanna Koerstz Madsen in the Women's Scottish Open. Woad is making her professional debut, which only means she gets paid at the end of the week. She looks no different from the last couple of weeks, when she won the Women's Irish Open and then tied for third in the LPGA major in France at the Evian Championship. Korda birdied her last two holes for a 66 to get to within two shots, hopeful she is trending in the right direction as she goes for her first win of the season. Koerstz Madsen also shot 66. Woad, who played her college golf at Florida State, was at 12-under 132 after spending two days before the largest crowd at Dundonald Links, playing in the same group as Korda and Charley Hull of England. Woad's finish at the Evian Championship earned her an LPGA card, prompting her to turn pro. The Women's Scottish Open felt no different from her other July events. It was all about trying to ride the momentum. She dismissed the notion that she has started her pro career by taking a 36-hole lead in a tournament co-sanctioned by the LPGA and the Ladies European Tour. 'I played in seven majors now so I've had all that experience, and obviously the LET events, too,' Woad said. 'So wasn't really new things I guess. Kind of knew how to deal with it.' She has missed only two greens each of the last two rounds on the links course just to the north of Royal Troon on the Ayrshire coast. It's a strong field with the final major of the year, the Women's British Open, next week at Royal Porthcawl in Wales. The biggest help was the wind, or lack of it. The breeze gave way to calm conditions, and Woad ran off four birdies on the back to seize control. Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. Korda, winless after a seven-victory season in 2024, made her lone mistake with a bogey on the par-5 18th as she made the turn. She handled the calm conditions on the front nine to get in the final group. 'Apparently this is not really Scottish weather. It's pretty soft, so I've been hearing this is not the typical weather and course they usually play out here,' Korda said. 'But overall, when you get good rounds under your belt, that's always a step in the right direction. My main focus is this week. I'm trying to finish as best as I possibly can.' Sei Young Kim had a 67 and was three shots behind, followed by Hyo Joo Kim (66) who was four shots off the pace. ___ AP golf:

Phillies sign 1st-round draft pick pitcher Gage Wood out of Arkansas
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — It's been an eye-opening experience for Gage Wood, the Philadelphia Phillies' first-round draft pick. The right-handed pitcher from the University of Arkansas officially signed a $3 million contract on Tuesday and will report this week to the Phillies' training complex in Clearwater, Florida. The 26th overall pick has already had a taste of what his Philly future could be.

(Meredith Seaver/College Station Eagle via AP, File) 'It's awesome. I got to come up here to Philly for the first time, I worked my whole life for this,' the 21-year-old Wood said. 'It's a blessing and I can't wait to get going.' Wood had spent a few days in the city, seeing an explosive fan reaction when Kyle Schwarber hit a grand slam that proved to be a winning blow over the Angels on Saturday night, and having his family with him in Citizens Bank Park to see the Phillies beat the Red Sox on Monday night on a catcher's interference call. 'The stadium's awesome, the fans are awesome and the environment is incredible,' Wood said. 'It was really surreal.' When he hasn't been at the ballpark, Wood added, 'I've been working out at the hotel, and we've been playing catch in the strip of grass right across the road.' It doesn't get any more thrilling than that. When it comes to his status, however, Wood isn't one for hyperbole. The kid who threw a 19-strikeout no-hitter in the College World Series was asked if he thought that set him apart from other first-round draftees.

'But I'll let the people in the front office make that decision.' ___ AP MLB:
