SPOKANE, Wash. — Gonzaga baseball took a 6-2 lead into the eighth inning, but an Oregon rally gave the visitors the win, 7-6, on Monday night at Patterson Baseball Complex and Coach Steve Hertz Field.

Gonzaga (17-15) gave up a two-run homer in the eighth and then a go-ahead three-run homer in the ninth to the Ducks (22-13) after grabbing the lead with a four-run fourth inning.

Guthrie Morrison and Josh Bristyan each had multi-hit games, while Nick Nyquist and Austin Pinorini did damage with the long ball. Morrison had three hits with a double and an RBI, while Bristyan had two hits with a triple and a run scored. Nyquist and Pinorini each homered in the game.

On the mound, Nick Trogrlic-Iverson turned in a solid 5.0 innings, allowing just two runs on four hits with four strikeouts.  

Gonzaga got on the board first with an RBI groundout by Pinorini in the first, but Oregon came back with a run in the second and another in the fourth for a 2-1 lead.

That's when GU had its big inning, posting four runs with four extra-base hits for a 5-2 lead in the fourth. Pinorini hit a solo home run and then Nyquist rocketed his homer out to centerfield to score Harris, who had reached on a double. Josh Bristyan then tripled and later scored on a squeeze bunt by Slade Heggen.

Trogrlic- Iverson settled in for the fifth to finish his night and then handed the ball to Trent Schulte, who kept the Ducks scoreless in the sixth and seventh.

In the eighth, Oregon closed to within two runs after a two-run homer made the score 6-4, and then UO got its go-ahead homer in the top of the ninth.

Gonzaga put runners on second and third with two outs in the home half of the final frame, but a diving stop at second base sealed it for the Ducks.

Gonzaga will be back on the road this weekend at Santa Clara, beginning Friday at 6 p.m. Links to live coverage will be available at GoZags.com.
