FSU baseball vs. Oregon State: Live coverage of Corvallis Super Regional Game Two
FSU baseball vs. Oregon State: Live coverage of Corvallis Super Regional Game Two The FSU Seminoles are playing the Oregon State Beavers in Game Two of the Corvallis Super Regional on Saturday for a spot in the College World Series. The Seminoles need to win to keep their season alive, while Oregon State can punch their ticket to the CWS with the win. The Beavers won the first game 5-4, walking off the game in the 10th inning. The Seminoles led 4-1 entering the ninth inning, but Joe Charles was unable to close the door. They started the rally with a double before two quick outs had FSU one out away from winning the game. A walk brought the tying run to the plate and a single loaded the bases. A wild pitch got the tying run into scoring position and another single tied the game and forced extra innings. They won the game in the 10th inning after a leadoff double and an infield single put runners at the corners with nobody out. AJ Singer ended the game with a single to center, stunning FSU's fans. The Seminoles are not dead yet, and they are favored in Saturday's game. Ace Jamie Arnold will start for the Seminoles, and they are the home team after being on the road yesterday. FSU has advanced to the CWS just once after losing Game One, forcing Game Three two other times, and getting swept seven times. Follow along for live updates and highlights for Game Two between FSU and Oregon State. Peyton Prescott walked the leadoff batter but responded with three straight strikeouts to end the game and force a do-or-die Game Three on Sunday. Max Williams started the inning with a single and got to third on a well-executed hit-and-run by Cal Fisher to put runners on the corners with one out. Drew Faurot struckout, but James Hankerson Jr. drew a walk to load the bases for Jaxson West with two outs. He drew another walk to drive in Williams and put FSU up 3-1. Peyton Prescott inherited a runner on first with nobody out after a leadoff walk. He got a strikeout before getting an inning-ending double play. Maison Martinez walked the leadoff batter and was replaced by Peyton Prescott with the tying run on first and nobody out. Martinez got just one out. Drew Faurot started the seventh inning with a walk, ending Ethan Kleinschmit's exceptional start. James Hankerson Jr. pinch-hit for Brody DeLamielleure but hit into a fielder's choice. Jaxson West singled, getting Hankerson Jr. into scoring position before Chase Williams lined out to the centerfielder and put the pressure on Gage Harrelson. FSU's leadoff man came through, singling to left center and giving FSU the 2-1 lead. The hit forced Oregon State to make another pitching change as Alex Lodise was up with runners on the corners and two outs. He was unable to add on, striking out for the second time. Kleinschmit allowed one unearned run in 6.0 innings on two hits and three walks. He struckout 11 batters. Martinez replaced Arnold with two outs in the sixth and got it done, striking out Aiva Arquette on three pitches to keep it tied. It is his first appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Jamie Arnold's start came to an end in the sixth inning as Maison Martinez was called upon to face Aiva Arquette with one runner on and two outs. Arnold allowed one run over 6.2 innings on six hits and one walk. The lefty struckout nine batters. Oregon State's Ethan Kleinschmit continued to dominate FSU's lineup, recording two more strikeouts and is up to 11 on the day. FSU has not gotten a hit since the third inning. Oregon State got its first hit since the second inning but Jamie Arnold was unfazed. He got a strikeout and two quick flyouts to end the threat. He has seven strikeouts on the day. Gage Harrelson worked a two-out walk for the Seminoles, but that was all they managed as Alex Lodise grounded out to end the inning. Arnold looks to be in control and retired the Beavers in order in the fifth inning, the second straight inning he has done so. After throwing 50 pitches through two innings, he is at 87 through five. FSU's offense was unable to get anything going in the fourth as Ethan Kleinschmit struck out the side. He is up to nine strikeouts in the game but has thrown 75 pitches. Arnold had his best inning of the game, retiring the Beavers in order for the first time. He picked up his fifth strikeout of the day and is at 73 pitches through four, and looks to have settled in nicely. Jaxson West reached on an error to start the inning and the Seminoles took advantage. Chase Williams and Gage Harrelson both struckout before Alex Lodise walked. That set up Max Williams, who delivered an RBI single to score West and make it a 1-1 game. The lengthy inning drove Ethan Kleinschmit's pitch count to 59. Jamie Arnold had a much-needed quick inning in the top of the third, using just 12 pitches to retire the side. He got some help from Alex Lodise, who made a great sliding play on a grounder up the middle for an out. He is up to 62 pitches through three innings and has allowed a baserunner every inning. FSU got its first baserunner of the game on a two-out double by Drew Faurot. He was stranded there as Brody DeLamielleure struckout to end the inning. The Seminoles have struckout four times through two innings. Oregon State threatened to add on in the second inning with back-to-back one-out singles. Arnold rallied to strand both runners but has thrown 50 pitches through two innings. The Seminoles were unable to get anything going in the bottom of the first inning as Gage Harrelson grounded out sharply before Alex Lodise and Max Williams struckout swinging. Oregon State starter Ethan Kleinschmit needed 19 pitches in the inning. Oregon State was able to get to Jamie Arnold in the top of the first inning. Aiva Arquette hit a one-out single and stole second with two outs. That proved costly for the Seminoles as Wilson Weber singled to left to drive him in and give the Beavers an early lead.

College baseball notebook: FSU's series win over Clemson moves it into 1st in tightly bunched ACC
The Atlantic Coast Conference promises high drama over the final two weeks of the regular season with just 1 1/2 games separating first-place Florida State and the teams tied for seventh, Clemson and Duke. The next two weekends will determine which four teams earn double byes for the ACC Tournament in Durham, North Carolina, on May 20-25. Florida State (33-10, 14-7) won two of three at home against Clemson to move past North Carolina State (30-15, 15-8) for the conference lead. The Wolfpack lost two at Miami and the third game of their series was rained out. The Seminoles completed the series win against Clemson with a 20-9 walk-off, run-rule victory Sunday. They went deep three times in the eighth inning and finished with six homers in a game for the third time this season. Drew Faurot and Alex Lodise connected twice apiece. FSU leads the ACC in batting (.322), slugging (.548) and homers (81). Lodise's .430 batting average and .804 slugging percentage are first in the conference, and the junior shortstop has played his way into being a projected second-round draft pick. Left-hander Jamie Arnold is the team's top draft prospect. Arnold (5-1, 2.29 ERA) ranks among the national leaders in strikeouts per nine innings (11.95) and walks and hits per inning (0.96) and is projected to be among the first five picks. Third-place North Carolina (35-10, 15-9) has the ACC's toughest closing stretch. The Tar Heels host rival N.C. State this week and then visit FSU. In the polls There was disagreement at the top of the polls Monday. Texas (38-8) remained No. 1 by after it was swept at Arkansas. Georgia (39-11) replaced the Longhorns in the Baseball America rankings after it swept Missouri on the road and extended its win streak to six games. DIBaseball promoted Florida State from No. 5 to No. 2 and dropped LSU (38-11) from No. 2 to No. 3 after it lost two of three at Texas A&M.

Since then the Gators have won 10 of 12 conference games to move into position for an NCAA Tournament bid. Florida (33-16, 11-13) swept South Carolina on the road, with Kevin O'Sullivan picking up his 750th career win with Sunday's 8-0 victory in the second game of a doubleheader. The sweep was the Gators' first in Columbia since 1996 and first on the road against any team since 2022. 7 for 7 Caleb Shpur became the first UConn player since 1979 to have a seven-hit game when he went 7 for 7 with six singles and a home run in a 29-10 win at Villanova on Saturday. The previous player to collect seven hits was Payton Brennan of UCLA, against UC Santa Barbara on March 26, 2024. Scoring in bunches Arizona State used a five-run seventh inning to beat Baylor 8-6 on Sunday and win the series.

Cleanup spot Northeastern's 10-0 win over Delaware on Sunday was the Huskies' nation-leading 16th in a row and 14th shutout, the most since Oregon State blanked 14 opponents in 2017. ... The Big East looks like a three-team race with first-place Creighton (31-13, 12-3) having won nine straight conference games and UConn (30-18, 14-4) having won 12 in a row in league play. The Bluejays are percentage points ahead of the Huskies. Third-place Xavier (29-21, 13-5) plays three games at Creighton this weekend. ...
