Whatever momentum Wichita State gained by sweeping Illinois State over the weekend disappeared against Kansas State at Tointon Family Stadium on Tuesday.
The Wildcats took advantage of inconsistent pitching and beat the Shockers 5-4.
Wichita State shuffled through a season-high 10 pitchers in the loss. It was obvious from the beginning the team was in for a rough day on the mound. Starter Keylan Killgore lasted just 1 2/3 innings. He got the hook from coach Todd Butler after walking K-State infielder Josh Ethier with the bases loaded in the second.
Pitching changes went on to become a common theme.
