EUGENE, Ore. – Oregon relief pitcher Brock Moore ran Oregon's streak of top-10 round selections in the MLB Draft to 11 consecutive drafts when the Seattle Mariners selected the Ducks' right-hander in the seventh round on day two of the draft. Â
Â
The selection marked the 13th time the Ducks have had a top-10 round pick in the in the 15 drafts (not counting the COVID-forced five-round draft in 2020) since baseball returned to Oregon. Â
Â
Moore was the 213th overall pick in the draft, tied for the 20th-highest pick in the modern era of Oregon baseball. Robert Ahlstrom was also the 213th overall pick going to the New York Yankees in the seventh round in 2021.
Â
Moore was a key member of the Ducks bullpen in 2024 during his one season with the program. He finished with a 4-1 record and a 5.81 ERA with one save. The senior made 17 appearances including one start in the Pac-12 Conference Tournament. He allowed 21 runs (20 earned) on 28 hits in 31.0 innings with 52 strikeouts and 20 walks. He held opposing hitters to a .241 batting average, while fanning 15.10 hitters per nine innings. He struck out an Oregon record eight consecutive batters in a come-from-behind nonconference win over No. 11 Oregon State on April 30.
Â
In Pac-12 play, Moore fanned 27 batters in 17.2 innings (13.8 per nine innings) of work while holding Pac-12 hitters to a .227 batting average.
Â
The MLB Draft continues on Tuesday with rounds 11 through 20.
