Box Score Box Score: Oregon 6, Vanderbilt 4 2026 Live Like Lou Las Vegas College Baseball Classic All-Tournament Team

LAS VEGAS, Nev. — Devin Bell bounced back from a tough outing on Saturday getting the final two outs with the bases loaded to help Oregon clinch a 6-4 win over Vanderbilt at the Live Like Lou Las Vegas Classic on Sunday at Las Vegas Ballpark.

The Ducks (10-1) went 2-1 in the tournament, while Vanderbilt (7-5) finished 0-3.

Cal Scolari (2-0) picked up the win after giving Oregon a quality start. He did not allow a run while surrendering just two hits with two walks and eight strikeouts. Five Oregon pitchers combined to strike out 14 Commodores.

How It Happened: Maddox Molony gave Oregon an early lead belting his third home run of the season, a solo shot in the second inning. The Ducks added to the lead, scoring a pair of runs in the third inning.

Angel Laya led off the inning with a base hit before moving to second on a sacrifice bunt and scoring on a Ryan Cooney double. Jax Gimenez followed with a run-scoring single plating Cooney for a 3-0 lead.

Oregon tacked on another urn in the fourth with another long ball. Burke-Lee Mabeus went the opposite way lofting a ball over the left-field wall for a 4-0 lead.

Oregon pushed the lead to 6-0 in the sixth inning with back-to-back home runs. Dominic Hellman pulled one to left field 396 feet for a five-run lead. Gabe Miranda followed with a 398-foot shot to right-center field.

Vanderbilt cut the lead to 6-4 in the eighth behind three home runs.

Box Score Notes: Molony moved into solo possession of fourth on Oregon's career home run list with his 28th … He needs two more to tie Tom Dodd (1977-79) for fourth … Oregon's last back-to-back home runs came at Texas A&M on June 9, 2024 … Hellman's homers in consecutive game marked the first time a Ducks' hitter homered in consecutive games since Anson Aroz did it on June 8-9, 2014 at Texas A&M.

On Deck: Oregon returns home for its first of three games against in-state rival Oregon State on Tuesday (3:05 p.m./B1G+) before hitting the road again for a three-game series at Purdue in the Ducks' Big Ten Conference opener.
