Hoyas Fall in Monday Matinee To #16 Oregon

WASHINGTON – The Georgetown University baseball team fell to Oregon 12-1 in seven innings. With the loss, GU slides to 12-24 overall while the Ducks improve to 25-10.
 
ON THE RECORD
"Oregon came in today and showed why they are the number 16 team in the country. Their pitcher was outstanding today and kept us off balance. We didn't put much pressure on him. Other than that one time we had Owen Carapellotti hit a great home run, but we never could get anything going. He didn't give us anything for free. They played good defense. Had two double plays early, which kind of made it tough. I thought Johan Franco did a good job. For the first two innings, he was outstanding. I thought our pitching staff did a good job. Except for those two innings, we just gave them some free bases, and they hit a couple home runs. Unfortunately, against a good team, they'll make you pay. Today was a great opportunity for our program and we had an unbelievable crowd. We appreciate all the fans that came out to watch us and supported us. We hope more fans will come out this weekend and catch some games as we get ready for Butler on Thursday." - Head Coach Edwin Thompson

HOW IT HAPPENED 
  • Through the opening three innings, both squads were scoreless, each just notching a singular hit.
  • Oregon opened up the scoring in the top of the fourth inning with an RBI double to left field. With runners on first and second, the Ducks scored the first run, but the following baserunner was thrown out at the plate. With the bases loaded, the Ducks scratched another run across the plate with the batter being hit by a pitch, advancing the second run of the day. Oregon proceeded to hit a grand slam to make it 6-0 before the end of the top of the fourth.
  • Georgetown got on the board in the bottom of the fourth frame when Carapellotti launched a deep shot over the right field wall to make it 6-1 in favor of the Ducks.
  • The Ducks extended their lead in the top of the sixth inning with an RBI double to deep right center to move the score to 7-1. The scoring streak continued into the top of the seventh with an infield RBI single followed by the second grand slam of the afternoon to make it 12-1 in favor of the visiting team.
  • The Hoyas couldn't mount a comeback and went on to fall 12-1 in seven innings.
 
OF NOTE
  • Carapellotti tallied the 47th home run of his career and is now one away from tying the Georgetown all-time home run record.
