For the first time since 2019, Baylor baseball completed an Opening Weekend sweep, taking down Youngstown State twice, 16-4 and 12-4, as part of a day-night doubleheader Saturday at Baylor Ballpark.
The Bears (3-0) scored 38 runs over the course of the series and struck out 36 batters as Mitch Thompson picked up his third sweep as head coach.
“It’s what the doctor ordered,” Thompson said. “You can see that this is going to be a fun lineup, especially when you get production from the bottom… They all performed pretty good over the course of the weekend.
