New York Yankee Jacoby Ellsbury Commits 1 Million to Oregon State

“We are tremendously thankful,” said Pat Casey, who is in his 20th year as OSU’s head coach.

(CORVALLIS, Ore. ) - Jacoby Ellsbury, centerfielder for the New York Yankees and former student-athlete at Oregon State University, has committed $1 million to help the OSU baseball program expand its locker room facilities.

Goss Stadium, which has stood on the Oregon State campus since 1907, is the oldest continuous ballpark in the nation, and has been home to the Beavers since the program’s first pitch more than 100 years ago.
