OMAHA, Neb. – Easton Talt and Gavin Turley both hit solo home runs in Oregon State’s 6-2 loss to Coastal Carolina Sunday night in front of 24,490 fans at Charles Schwab Field Omaha.

Talt hit a long ball to right in the third and Turley went deep for the 20th time this season when he launched a home run to left in the ninth. The Beavers (48-15-1) proceeded to put two runners on down four but were unable to get any closer as Coastal Carolina’s Ryan Lynch saved his ninth game of the season.

Oregon State’s loss forces the Beavers into an elimination game matchup with Louisville Tuesday.

The Chanticleers (55-11) scored six runs off Oregon State starter Ethan Kleinschmit, with just two being earned. The lefty allowed three hits and three walks while striking out seven. He dropped to 8-5 this season.

Jacob Morrison held Oregon State to five hits and a run in 7 2/3 innings. He scattered five hits while striking out seven. He is 12-0 on the year.

Coastal Carolina scored three in the first then went up 5-1 with a two-run fourth inning. The Chanticleers scored one more in the fifth before the trio of Zach Kmatz, Laif Palmer and Zach Edwards held them scoreless over 4 1/3 innings, striking out five in the process.
