UCLA shares Big Ten championship with Oregon after beating Northwestern in finale
UCLA wins the Big Ten baseball title in its first season in the conference.
UCLA baseball can call itself a Big Ten champion. The Bruins and Oregon Ducks tied for the Big Ten title. They will share the conference championship after both teams won on Saturday. UCLA crushed Northwestern, 11-1, while Oregon went on the road and smacked around Iowa 13-4 to share the title with the Bruins. Ducks Wire has more:
“The Ducks finish the regular season on a major high, winning 10 straight games with an overall record of 41-13 and 22-8 in conference action. With this sweep, they are almost guaranteed to host one of the 16 regionals in the NCAA tournament. The only question now is whether Oregon will be one of the eight national seeds to host a possible Super Regional.
“But first, the Ducks needed to complete the sweep in Iowa City, and they got the job done rather easily. Third baseman Cater Garate hit two of Oregon’s five home runs on the day, driving in five, and Jacob Walsh drove in three more in the regular season finale. Iowa was actually up 1-0 after an inning, but starter Jason Reitz settled in, went 5.2 innings, allowing just that one run on four hits to go to 5-0 on the season.”
Ducks Wire’s note about Oregon hosting a super regional is important. Oregon and UCLA are both in the hunt for a hosting spot. The upcoming Big Ten Tournament might determine if one or both schools get one of the 16 regional hosting positions. Oregon will be the No. 1 seed at the Big Ten Tournament, UCLA No. 2.

Fire pit embers blamed for trailer fire on Table Rock Road; 1 displaced
MEDFORD, Ore. — Fire crews quickly knocked down a trailer fire Monday night that threatened a nearby home in the 3000 block of Table Rock Road, displacing one resident.
Firefighters responded around 9:20 p.m. Monday, May 4. Engine 14 arrived to find a trailer on fire and the flames threatening a nearby residence. Crews knocked the fire down within eight minutes of arrival.
No injuries to civilians or firefighters were reported. One resident was displaced as a result of the fire.
The cause is believed to be related to the use of an outdoor fire pit, where embers likely ignited nearby combustible materials. Officials said the fire spread from pallets and other items to the RV, causing extensive damage to the RV and minor damage to the exterior of the home.
With warmer, drier weather approaching, officials warned fire risk increases and urged people to follow outdoor fire safety tips. They recommend using a screen on outdoor fires when burning wood, choosing approved propane free-standing fire pits rather than wood-fueled options, keeping combustible materials at least 15 feet away, and discarding cigarettes, ash, embers and other smoldering materials in a non-combustible container filled with water.
Medford Police, Mercy Flights Inc. and Jackson County Fire District 3 assisted on the incident.
