Nobach's 4-hit game powers Knights to win.

Center fielder Kyle Nobach (pictured) capped a four-hit night with an RBI triple in the ninth inning that gave Corvallis a dramatic 6-4 win over host Walla Walla on Wednesday.

Nobach's (Oregon State) three-bagger scored Scott Ogrin (Cal Poly in 2017), who walked with one out, breaking a 4-4 deadlock. Emilio Alcantar (Lewis-Clark State) followed with a sacrifice fly for a key insurance run.

Lefty Trenton Dupre (Washington State) retired the Sweets in the ninth for the save. Walla Walla had scored four times in the eighth to erase a 4-0 Corvallis advantage.

Named to the South Division All-Star team earlier this week, Nobach also doubled, singled twice, scored twice and walked while reaching base safely in all five plate appearances. His first four-hit game of the summer raised his average 41 points to .338.

The Knights (27-12 all, 20-12 WCL, 2-3 second half) evened the series at a game apiece. It concludes at 7:05 p.m. Thursday. UC Riverside lefty Hazahel Quijada (1-0, 1.10) is the projected starter for Corvallis, opposed by incoming University of San Diego lefty Chris Murphy (1-1, 3.60).

Alcantar and Michael Farris (UC Riverside) had two RBIs apiece for Corvallis. Farris upped his team-leading total to 18. Ogrin singled, scored twice and had an RBI.

Starter Grant Goodman (San Francisco) allowed three hits over 5.1 scoreless innings and matched his season-high with six strikeouts. His ERA fell from 2.54 to 1.96, but he got a no-decision.

Corvallis tallied twice in the fifth to snap a 22-inning road scoreless streak. Nick Kahle (Washington in 2017) walked, Cody Hawken (Portland) doubled and both scored on groundouts by Ogrin and Alcantar .

They doubled that lead to 4-0 in the seventh when Farris (UC Riverside) singled home Ogrin and Nobach, aboard via one-out singles.

The next home game for the Knights is a 6:40 p.m. Friday matchup against the Cowlitz Black Bears.
