Oregon State is set to travel to Beaumont, Texas, on April 3, 2026, for a much‑anticipated baseball showdown against Lamar University at Vincent‑Beck Stadium. The game is slated to begin at 4:05 p.m. Pacific Time and will be carried live on the Beaver Sports Network, with a streaming option on osubeavers.com and ESPN+.
The Beavers enter the contest after a 2‑0 victory over Lamar in their last meeting, a game that highlighted the arms of Trey Morris, Wyatt Queen and Albert Roblez. Roblez’s tenth save of the season underscored a bullpen that has been rock‑solid all year.
Leading the rotation will be Dax Whitney, whose 78 strikeouts top the nation and whose recent performances have kept Oregon State’s opponents guessing. Whitney’s ability to dominate the mound is a key reason the Beavers are riding a five‑game road trip that has already produced a 39‑14 advantage in the first two innings of the season.
Beyond the pitching staff, Oregon State’s defense has been impeccable, posting a .986 fielding percentage that nears the school record set in each of the past three years. The team has gone six straight games without an error and has committed just two miscues in its last 11 outings.
Offensively, the Beavers have shown a knack for getting on base, with AJ Singer reaching safely in 15 consecutive games and Cooper Vance extending that streak to 19. Their disciplined approach has translated into a high‑scoring start to the campaign.
The depth of the roster is evident in the presence of veterans such as Chris Olivier, Mike Parker, Bryson Glassco, Mitch Hickey, Max Engelbrekt, Ryan Brown and Mitch Canham, each of whom has contributed to the team’s consistency throughout the season.
Key storylines heading into the matchup
The Beavers’ coaching staff will be watching closely as the team looks to extend its winning streak and maintain its strong early‑season form. With a blend of veteran arms and fresh talent, Oregon State aims to keep the momentum alive as it faces Lamar in what promises to be a tightly contested game.
