After trailing 5-1 into the bottom of the 6th, the Wildcats scored 7 unanswered runs in the 6th and 7th innings to take the lead, and then a surprising move to pull Connor McCollough, Saturday’s expected starter, out of the pen helped seal the stunning 8-5 victory for K-State over No. 7 Texas on Thursday night. It was almost all about the long ball for Kansas State, with 6 of the 8 runs coming via homeruns. Dylan Phillips, who continues to add to his K-State career record, knocked two solo shots for K-State’s first two runs, and then his buddies got into the act.
