Quack Fix: Ducks get swept by UCLA, Alonso's future at Oregon still in question
Not a lot of quack this weekend, but we did get to see the Lakers implode, so life is good. It was an ugly weekend for Oregon baseball. The pitching showed up, but the batting didn't, and Oregon scored only two runs over three games. On Sunday, they managed only two hits. George Horton described...
Oregon Baseball: Horton points to immaturity as reason for shortcomings
When a team is stacked with as many underclassmen as the Oregon Ducks have, maybe it's only natural to be questioning the team's mentality. Through 43 games, the Ducks are just three games above .500--greatly underachieving based on preseason expectations. Many people have speculated what the...

Oregon baseball: Stranded runners, predictable strategy, lead to another lost series
Kris Anderson, Addicted to Quack, Episode 2 On Friday, I was reminded of what the Oregon Ducks (17-16, 2-7 Pac-10) season was supposed to be like. The dominant pitching would set the tone of the game--opponents would know that every run would be a grind. On the other side would be the...
Oregon baseball: Ducks must handle pressure of make-or-break series with USC
