Oregon’s Emma Cox led off the 10th inning with an infield single before Katie Flannery laid down a sacrifice bunt to advance pinch runner Regan Legg, though an Ole Miss error left two runners in scoring position.
After a fielder’s choice cut down the lead runner, Kai Luschar chopped an infield single to set up her sister’s game-winning walk.
Ole Miss (42-21) trailed 5-2 going into the seventh before the Rebels tied it on Jamie Mackay’s two-out, two-run, pinch-hit single off Lyndsey Grein.
