Tim Tadlock’s Texas Tech baseball team pushed its Big 12 winning streak to seven games Saturday afternoon by powering past Oklahoma 7-3 in Norman. After falling behind 2-0 in the fifth inning, the Red Raiders scored seven unanswered runs including a go-ahead two-RBI double from Brian Klein and the eventual game-winning two-run homer from Josh Jung in the 7th to take a five-run lead into the bottom of the 9th where reliever Dane Haveman shut the door, but not before making the game interesting.
In its final at-bat, Oklahoma plated a run on a sacrifice fly and had the tying run at the plate with the bases loaded when Haveman struck out Oklahoma right fielder Brady Harlan to end the game.
