The Cowboys got up on the right side of the bed Saturday morning.
Oklahoma State topped Texas 8-1 on Saturday morning to force a double-header semifinal in the Big 12 Championship. The Cowboys are the fourth seed in the tournament, with Texas being the fifth.
The Cowboys built a 6-0 lead in the first two innings and added a run each in the fourth and fifth and then rode relief pitcher Ryan Bogusz for a career performance in his first start.
Despite the disparity on the scoreboard, the Cowboys didn’t make it easy on themselves. The Cowboys scored six of their eight runs with two outs.
