With Drew Beam on the mound for the Vols, it wasn’t overly surprising this game turned into a contest where runs were at a premium — at least in the beginning.
Beam lasted 5.2 IP and gave up 7 H, 2 Ks, 1 ER and got six Sooners out via ground ball.
But as he often does, he worked through traffic in the second, third and gave up his lone run in the fourth. Before he gave up the run-scoring single, the Sooners’ Michael Snyder laced a ball to leftfield, where Dylan Dreiling made a full-extension, diving catch that saved a run from scoring from second base.
