Bears, with a solid RPI in the 30s, will look to remain above 0.500 to be post season eligible against Washington State this weekend. Given the toughness of some other Pac-12 opponents, a series win here would be essential if the Bears want to return to regional play.

Likely Saturday starter is senior Kyle Porter, coming off a career best outing (11 strikeouts) last weekend against Utah.
