The nation’s longest active winning streak came to an end on Saturday in Stillwater as the No. 17 Oklahoma State Cowboys defeated the No. 21 Texas Longhorns 4-1 at O’Brate Stadium to tie the series.
Oklahoma State starter Juaran Watts-Brown, a right-hander who transferred from Long Beach State, was dominant for the Cowboys on the mound, looking every bit like a top-40 prospect in the 2023 MLB Draft with a mid-90s fastball, a sharp slider, and a devastating curveball. Watts-Brown set the tone early with the rare accomplishment of striking out four batters in the first inning before throwing 128 pitches over 8.
