Game Notes

San Marcos
, Texas – Texas State continues to take on ranked teams. After playing a three-game weekend series against No. 4 Oregon State, the Bobcats will face No. 11 Oregon in games on Tuesday and Wednesday at 8 p.m. (All game times listed in Central Standard Time).
 
Senior righty Mitchell Pitts (0-1, 4.50 ERA) will be the first to get a crack at the Ducks while Texas State will face Jeff Gold (2-0, 0.51 ERA). Pitchers for Wednesday will be named later.
 
Senior designated hitter/catcher Andrew Stumph has currently reached base in seven consecutive games and will look to keep that alive against Oregon. First baseman Ben McElroy has a hit in two consecutive games to lead the team.
 
Oregon dropped two of three at home against Vanderbilt this past weekend, but before that won three in a row and six of eight.
 
So far on the current road trip, McElroy leads the team in batting average at .333. McElroy and Cory Geisler are the only two Bobcats with multiple RBI on the trip while Garrett Mattlage and Kevin Sah join McElroy on top of the hitting list with three hits apiece.
 
After these two midweek games against Oregon, Texas State returns to Bobcat Ballpark to host former Southland Conference rival Texas A&M-Corpus Christi over the weekend.
