Four singles in the first inning off of Oklahoma baseball starter James Hitt led to two Oklahoma State runs, and that proved to be all the Cowboys would need in a 11-1 victory and a Bedlam series win over OU in Norman on Saturday.
No. 24 Oklahoma State took two of three from the Sooners at L. Dale Mitchell Park over the weekend and three of the four games between the two in-state rivals during the 2023 season.
The Sooners (30-24, 11-13) were hoping to salvage the rubber game in the series and improve their chances of making it into the NCAA postseason, but that was not to be and now OU will probably have to win a couple of games in next week’s Big 12 Tournament and hope that is enough to earn a spot in the 64-team NCAA Tournament field.
