Moore gets the start today for Oregon State in the 2013 College World Series. Moore went 13-1 with a 1.22 ERA for the Beavers during his freshman year, leading OSU in wins and ERA. The two-time champion OSU Beavers lost in extra innings yesterday which means they must win today to remain in the College World Series.

Ryon Healy goes from the Ducks to the A’s

Ryon Healy of the Oregon Ducks was taken by the Oakland A’s with the 100th pick

Ryon Healy will have to make only a minor change in his uniform as he transitions from the Ducks’ green and gold to the Athletics’ green and gold. When I took today’s photo three weeks ago, I thought at the time how strange it was to see A’s vs. Giants colors at a Ducks vs. Beavers game. I found myself wanting the Ducks to win simply because they looked more like my A’s. I can’t get too attached to one school or the other until my kids figure out where they want to go. I don’t want to become a Ducks fan if Ryan and/or Ellie end up at OSU or vice versa.

Today’s photo is from our visit to Winston, Oregon’s Wildlife Safari early last year.

If today’s photo looks familiar it’s because you may have also seen it on the Oregon Ducks site. They have used some of my photos recently, including the one I posted a couple weeks ago here.
