  • Graham Osman fired seven full innings of a combined shutout in a stellar Long Beach State debut last Friday to garner a first-ever Big West Pitcher of the Week nod.
  • Taking the ball from fourth-year head coach Eric Valenzuela on Opening Night on Bohl Diamond at Blair Field, Osman allowed just one single while striking out eight. The fourth-year junior southpaw and first-year Arizona State transfer issued one walk and tossed 75 pitches (53 strikes) to face two over the minimum before handing things over to Ethan Clough and Josh Haley for the final six outs of a 2-0 Beach victory.
  • A native of Morrison, Colo., Osman retired the first eight Shocker batters in order before committing a two-out fielding error in the third. A popout ended that frame. Wichita State would only then get a one-out single in the fourth, and a leadoff walk in the sixth that was wiped out two pitches later by a lineout double-play. Osman set down two final batters in the seventh via swinging strikeout.
