It was a comeback for the ages: The Oregon State Beavers, down to their final strike in the College World Series and trailing the Arkansas Razorbacks 3-2 in the top of the ninth, tied the game up after Cadyn Grenier's pop-up single scored their pinch runner. Then Trevor Larnach came up to bat, hitting a two-run home run over the fences at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha, Nebraska.

"I just said, 'Get going, get going,' and it went," Larnach told ESPN. "And from there, I don't really remember."

The win means that Oregon State has forced a decisive Game 3 in the best-of-three series, after going into Wednesday's game trailing Arkansas, which has never won a national title in baseball, 1-0. Game 3's first pitch is Thursday at 6:30 p.m. ET and can be watched on ESPN2.
