FAYETTEVILLE -- First Missouri State shortstop Jeremy Eierman knocked it out. Then he said he almost blacked out.
Eierman hit a two-out, two-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning off Oklahoma State senior right-hander Trevor Cobb to lift the Bears to a 6-5 victory over the Cowboys on Friday in the opening game of the NCAA Fayetteville Regional at Baum Stadium.
Eierman, a sophomore from Warsaw, Mo., said it was the first time that he hit a home run to end a game at any level.
"I really don't remember running the bases," Eierman said.
