and you’ve got the Shadows around home plate ball coming from the sunlight into the Shadows which is always a little bit of a challenge Enzo abadaka red shirt Jr from Scottdale he’s a transfer from Gonzaga and he is the only Bor player to start every game at the same position this year just the hard-nosed player say Mitch Thompson consistently competive kind of guy you need at the top of your lineup he’s hitting 342 with 11 double he’s got the power working for him he’s got a very easygoing Approach at the plate really stays the middle looking him choke up on the bat there with two strikes get control of the barrel back up the middle ranging over is Nicholas and he can’t come up and fire and abadaka safe at first base on an 02 pitch he’s able to hit the infield roller that this looks like something off speed so we get another look at it see him get the foot down early works the hands up the middle this looks like a pretty tough backhand for Jay Nick just closed the glove and it’s just not there so the first error comes on the first batter of the night Enzo abadaka save at first Tai Johnson the center fielder is the batter [Music] Johnson Jr from Flower Mound Texas missed a few games in March with injury and he’s a transfer from mclennen Community College Mitch Thompson previously the head coach there at mclennen from 2014 to 22 won a Joo National Title 2021 and he’s got five guys on this Baylor roster who were former players at mclennen and mclennon now Co coached by Skip Johnson’s son Tyler it’s a good relationship between the coaches the [Music] families one and one the count to Ty Johnson Johnson hit his first home run as a bear against TCU on Saturday decided he liked it so well he hit another one on Tuesday against Charlton State they can come in bunches Blake it’s contagious you get that home run swing that that launch angle that body likes to talk about these days it it just comes like the flu only in a good way [Music] yeah abadaka has only attempted four stolen bases he’s been successful twice Scott mudler behind the plate for the sooner as this one is bounced past Michael Snyder and into right field abadaka races for third and it’s a threat for the Baylor Bears in the first an error and a base hit by Johnson and Runners are at the corners with nobody out yeah with Michael Snider playing in to hold on abadaka at first base Ty Johnson squeaks one through the full hole here on a on a off speed pitch he kind of rolls over that that E4 looking pretty bad right now coming from Jay Nick at second base a hit an error and an opportunity for the Bears to get on the board first Cole posy first baseman is in posy had a redot month of April B at 442 and he’s a really good story that we’ll get into as that pitch misses a little bit away fast ball outside at 91 Brian maren is the plate umpire Matthew Anderson is at first bill Maguire the second base umpire and Clay Park is down in third tonight one and one to co posy Baylor the third stop in the collegiate career for Cole Poise Posey out of Georgetown Texas 2020 he was at Boise State and then 2021 and 22 he spent at New Mexico Davis is 1-1 lashed into right field an RBI single for posy Ty Johnson down to Third and the Bears have a run on the board and nobody out in the first inning what a start for Baylor I just switching sides here on the base paths posie does a nice job of staying inside this fast ball Little Derek Jeter action Inside Out Pass the diving glove of Snider at first base look how deep he makes Con in the zone he makes contact with that baseball it’s a good piece of he so abadaka who reached on the airor is in to score Johnson is at third Posey the RBI single he continues his hot stretch for the Bears and Hunter toiny is in with still nobody out Bell High fast for a strike [Music] tolansky batting at 289 pops this one up that’ll reach the seats some days we get that brisk south wind and that ball might be actually held up in the field of play sounds crazy instead it’s over there in the beer stand you got a kind of like a Northwest West Wind coming in here Northeast wind excuse me that’s weird isn’t it yeah never see the flag blow that way and it was it was coming out of the South before the game started wouldn’t you agree with me a lot of swirling yeah I’m not a weatherman but I can I can look at a flag well you can play one here you’re the best we got that pitches down in the turf and Posey’s going to move to second base this is a really good job of a dirt ball read by Posey smothered by mudler and he’s got a good arm on the plate but posie gets a really good jump seeing that ball out of the hand of Davis taking advantage second and third no outs squibs this one fouled the count will stay one and two on Hunter tolansky think about Davis or one of the things about Davis is he can get outs on his own via the strikeout mentioned the combined no hitter that he pitched against West Virginia with Reed Hensley he had 12 strikeouts in that game he’s had a couple of d double digit strikeout efforts that’s Bren Davis this year yeah he leads U with 84 and 65 Innings pitch and he’s really developed himself I think late in the year I think early on he was developing that change up a little bit he might have had good feel for it but wasn’t really throwing it for a strike now here the last couple starts I think he’s really using against right-handed batters especially with two strikes two and two man that was a close pitch I think that was it to change up a little bit up at 80 mph that fast ball sits at 9293 for Braden Davis so it’s a big drop in velocity with a little bit of Fade to [Music] it and a Full Count with first base open Hunter to PL began his collegiate career at TCU spent 2022 there this is his second season as a Bor bear he has reached base safely in eight straight at bats going back to last weekend and make it nine straight at bats that tolansky has reached safely as he draws a walk still nobody out and the base is loaded now yeah just a sign of how well plansky seen it at the plate that’s a change up down in a 3-2 count when you’re high on a motion you can easily get a swing on that but he’s just seeing it well right out of the hand and and finding his windows catcher kland Castle will be the batter he’s become the weekend catcher out of Woodway Texas Midway high school he was sitting on that one and swung right over the top of it that’s that change up Shad o count Castle might have been a little bit revved up swings right over the top of it and back with a fast ball it’s own and two [Music] and Castle gets hit by that a fast ball on 0 and two that came in and got him on the bottom part of his elbow it appeared and that will force home Ty Johnson with the second Baylor run here in this first inning skip Johnson coming out for a little bit of explanation Alman might have sold it but let’s see tough to tell from that one he might have sold that home playay umpire Brian Marine just going off of sound there you hear that deflect off his left arm as a right-handed hitter the call was a little bit late almost reactionary so it is two runs home on two hits an error a walk and a hit batsman and the Bears still have nobody out and still the base is loaded for Daniel mman now and zadaka Ty Johnson of each score Davis about to throw his 21st pitch already still not an out recorded well hit into right center field madon and spikerman are both back and it’ll be Spiker catching it on the warning track kosy going to tag a third and score on the sacrifice fly by Daniel Alman and it’s three nothing Baylor in the [Laughter] first gave that one a ride yeah Alman gets a fast ball over the middle of plate it’s his 31st RBI in the year let’s look at this one again fast ball grip yeah middle middle nice job staying short normal day at lale that might be out of here for a granny I’m I’m in agreement with you when it left the bat it looked like it might carry further spikerman had enough room out there to planty did a good job tagging in advancing to Third and with one down here is Kate [Music] Fletcher Fletcher dhing tonight rener Jr from Mansfield Texas and began his college career at Oklahoma he was a sooner in fact last year two and0 the count to Kate Fletcher and Skip Johnson going to make the walk out with one away have a conversation here with Braden Davis a grinder and Skip Johnson said it’s you see what happens when he gets into the game and that’s because of the work he does when you’re not watching in between starts you see nobody loosening or stretching in the bullpit yeah skip Johnson full facing this guy and he’s a couple weeks ago at OSU that Friday night game he had a really gutsy start not his best stuff but gave six Innings and I think six runs in that appearance sometimes Success is Not determined by strikeouts runs given up but just being able to extend the life of that starting pitcher not have to get into the bullpen so here’s Fletcher with a two- and0 count on him Davis digs back in there’s that change up it’s filthy that’s that’s a 12 12 mph difference with a little bit of run to a left-handed arm side away from Kade Fletcher right-handed hitter that’s a good [Music] pitch two and two now like to change up again back to back if I’m him I’m throwing it one more time maybe Barry this one reliable mudler behind the plate so he get a swing over the top maybe a ground ball double play [Laughter] had a strike out there out number two it’s Kate Fletcher swings and misses so whatever skip Johnson said it worked as Davis throws three straight strikes and gets a big second out sometime the portal works out in your favor when a guy leaves you got to scouting reports against him obviously after the that the mound visit we get three straight change UPS we’ll get a side view from this look how he gets down the hill finishes balanced baby face assassin here’s Tyreek kep the short stop eighth batter of the inning for the [Music] Bears posy with an RBI single Castle got hit by pitch with the bases loaded and a sacrificed fly to drive in the three here in the first this one is shot High into the air Third Base side McKenzie over near the Oklahoma Dugout and the inning is over so following the mound visit Bren Davis able to retire Fletcher and Kemp Sooners Trail at 3 nothing we’ll give you their batting lineup when we return Geico can help when you’re locked out with their easy app in 24 S Health dad you don’t have to make this so tough on yourself Geico can help us get into our locked car see yeah but where’s the fun of that maybe I’m just nostalgic for the good old days before we had Geico’s great coverage and 247 help all set guys let’s go again whatever you need from coverage to service get more with Geico our tail begins in a far off land where Mario gets mugged is that right on his Grand Adventure to recover the crystal Stars Mario is cursed to fold into a paper plane what then faces a dragon with a froggy phobia he’s getting into epic scraps saving transforming towns folk and battling wacky wrestlers in Paper Mario the Thousand-Year Door rated E for everyone Mir three nothing Bears on top in Oklahoma coming to the plate for the first time with this lineup presented by Norman Regional health system John spikerman Bryce madon eastn Carmichael and then Michael SN Anthony McKenzie Jackson Nicholas Jackson Willets back out there mudler and then Jason walk getting the start out in left field and before the Sooners come to the plate here at the bottom of the first inning let us welcome in the third member of our crew tonight Carly Murray Well Chad the Sooners say two things are keys to their success this season their veteran leadership and chemistry skip Johnson notes four core leaders on his team Michael Snyder John spikerman Kendall Pettis and will Cardston well it’s easy for Kendall Pettis to be a leader on this team this is his fifth year in the crimson and cream I asked him what’s different about this team how have you guys consistently been able to win Marquee games his answer was pretty simple he said we’re a family not just inside the clubhouse but outside as well we spend a lot time together Chad that always seems to be the key with successful teams veteran leaders who care about the chemistry on and off the field these guys truly play for each other thank you Carly and you’ve been able to feel it skip Johnson has regularly talked about the way that they pick each other up and Kendall Pettis and Spiker certainly a part of that 2022 run all the way to the national championship game so they got that winning pedigree that always helps when the newcomers come into the program play yeah it just trick Les down done it you see Jason walk stepping up big time as a freshman coming in a big series at OSU hitting a home run it it’s contagious Mason Marriott the Junior from tumball Texas his third year as a Baylor Bear coming off maybe his best performance of the year against TCU last weekend went eight Innings gave just two earned runs and had four strikeouts you asked Mitch Thompson about this junior right-hander he said it’s just consistent Y and maturity been around a little bit dad Mike played professional baseball with the [Music] Marlins he’s been good keeping Baylor in games and not forcing them to get into the bullpen which has been a problem at times for the Bears this one stroked into the alley in right center field spikerman crushes this one in between the O’s and over the wall for a ground rule double so the Sooners with an answer from their center fielder John spikerman that Spike gets a fast ball over the middle of the plate in a 02 count from Marriott stays short let’s look at this up in the zone gets the barrel level boom that’s another one we got robbed on a triple here see a big bounce off the turf spikes think a triple out the gate spikerman double number eight on the year and right away the sooner as a man is scoring position this one is smoked to left Center by madon back to the wall as Bergman reaches up it’s off his glove and then off the top of the wall Spiker will cruise home on an RBI triple by Bryce madon and Oklahoma responds with the a double and a triple and a run in the bottom of the first there’s a lot going on on this one triples are the most exciting play in the game every time they’re the most exciting this is a good pitch down and Away M kind of goes up and clips it the left thei little Bergman scales has a chance just in and out of the glove B’s third triple of the Year sooner bats are hot first pitch swinging Easton carmichel bounces one to third tolansky up with it it’ll be an RBI ground out for Easton carmichel in Oklahoma has played two to answer the three given up in the top of the first and eastn Carmichael continues to get the job done that’s his 45th run batted in yeah just a sophomore that’s a veteran at bad gets a pitch in the zone he knows it’s going to be off speed with the runner and scoring position less than two outs gets the ball on the ground for a speedy madin to advance to score the Run was it feel like one of those kind of nights a 14 to 15 game yes I wouldn’t think with these starting pitchers as Michael Snider grounds out to Tyreek Kemp the short stop for the second out you know it’s that time of the year temperatures warming up into the 80s and the offenses tend to start winning you get scouting reports on all the pitchers around the league Blake it just then you get into the postseason tournament where the bullpens are taxed and it just kind of starts to happen when you get late in the year yeah the air is light balls are flying everywhere you’re absolutely right and I think Mitch Thompson had it perfectly pegged this might be a bullpen weekend Anthony McKenzie is in here here for the Sooners two down base is clear keny had a home run and four runs batted in in Oklahoma’s second game out in LC this weekend Sooners sweeping Texas Tech in love it that is five Big 12 weekend sweeps for Oklahoma that’s never happened 18 wins in conference playing for the Sooners most they’ve had since 2004 so this one is ripped foul down the left field line you just don’t just go into LC Texas and get a sweep that’s the first time Texas Tech was swept on its home field there at Griffin Park since 2011 this one is hit to the second basan Alman inning over but Oklahoma responds Spiker a double madin a triple 3-2 Baylor headed to the second mat theol is now

top of Oklahoma as we head to the second inning that’s so much activity that we have not even had time to get in Blake’s keys to this one they are presented by Riverwind Casino it’s always a good time Baylor has been one of the best defensively in the Big 12 this year yeah they really have through 47 games they’ve turned 44 double plays that’s almost won a game lead the Big 12 13th nationally and I think for Oklahoma we kind of saw it here in the first inning explosive offense that that double triple uh maybe even the long ball at times just find a way to score runs so Braden Davis I would ask how does Braden Davis now hit the reset button here but it seemed like he did once skip Johnson came out for a mound visit yeah that first air you get a ground weak ground ball from the lead off aaga you kind of think you got an out there and it just kind of tumbles from there but you’re absolutely right skip Johnson’s got a away with his guys to come out settle them in go three change UPS in a row and he’s back in the zone so Caleb Bergman the left fielder leads off swiping at it Davis Nicholas will get to it but not be able to make a throw and it’s an field hit for Caleb Bergman to start the second for Baylor base hit number three for the Bears so far tonight off of Bren Davis this is a fast ball at the knees Bergman does a nice job he he might have saved a home run last inning Chad I couldn’t tell it was happened too quick but it it looked pretty close the ball off the bat of Madrick right back to the top of the order for Enzo abadaka safe on the error by Nicholas in the first and then came in to score a run one of the three runs the Bears got in the first pulled foul past first base here one and one the count here Enzo abadaka Miss Thompson said the strength of this team has been overcoming injury adversity four regular guys who they feel like would have been in the lineup every single day who have been lost to hury Hunter Simmons season opening weekend that’s when it started and others in the preseason very close play but Bergman is safe at first underneath the tag of Michael Snider might want to take a look at this Davis Kind of times this up perfect you got Caleb Berman jumping around out there Davis eyeing him down times up the jump makes a quick snap throw stepping off the back of the rubber plate umpire Brian maren over looking atemp the sooner dug out seeing if skip wants to challenge this they’re going to take a look at it so let’s us have another throws there looks like Snider Taps him on the helmet look at the arm make sure he gets in he goes does a nice job of getting away from this glove that’s a close oneit see his fingers reaching up Chad not fully getting grasp with the the bag just yet that’s a pretty good angle that might be overturned I are you firmly convinced I think so look at his fingers they’re they’re kind of spread out and up as the ball hits his helmet and you’ll see once he continues then he grabs the [Music] bag s seemed pretty convinced but you know when when guys are completely sure they’ll jump up and start signaling to their ears saying let’s let’s look at it let’s look at it and I’m not sure if it was initiated by Skip Johnson or by the umpires Bergman does a nice job of getting away from that tag young players want to figure out how to run base as well when you’re getting picked off from from the mound you want to get as far away from the ball as you can try to reach for that backside Bergman does a nice job displaying that gives him CH s a chance to get back I think we got this one overturned [Music] though they are seeing that angle that we just showed you a moment ago let’s look one more time I’ll be down Bergman nice job getting that backs side of the bag hands up I like an overturn here and the call will stand so Berkman safe at first base we will resume with the one-1 count on Enzo abadaka I just don’t think it was indisputable has to be a unanimous decision so to speak they probably had the same look you know you’re absolutely right didn’t have enough to to say he actually didn’t get back to the B before the ball got him another blob over there both these teams have their softball teams competing just up the road in Oklahoma City in the Big 12 Championship Oklahoma was leading BYU 13 nothing in the fifth in the Big 12 semifinals and Baylor will take on Texas in the game that follows that a lot of interest up I35 in Oklahoma City at the home of softball you’d have these two teams meeting for a big 12 Championship up there tomorrow as they play game two of the series between these teams four o00 first pitch tomorrow here in Norman very special Jersey retirement ceremony prior as legendary Oklahoma head coach Ena Seymour will have jersey number 24 retired here it would be great to see Seymour celebrated his 93rd birthday skip Johnson got to go out and spend some time with him that one comes up and in and really got a piece of abadaka that’s the second batter that Davis has hit with a pitch that one hurt shed alaka grabbing the left wrist going to have a look at Enzo Baylor can ill afford an injury to this guy maybe a two seamer that gets away from him left hand look like almost on that [Music] bone the only thing you can hope is maybe it hit the meteor part of that backand but you’re right I think hurts so abadaka has been on base twice this is that tone Setter that Baylor has had at the top of the order from the get-go Berman moves to second base Johnson hits a flare toward left walk Dives and it’s past him walk lost his glove on the play he’ll Chase it down but in the meantime Bergman is up and scoring and abadaka will get the stop sign at third it will be a double for Ty Johnson he is two for two in this game and Baylor has a 4-2 [Music] Advantage he’s on Pace for the cycle for the first at the fourth inning Mark right fast ball up and in Jam shot I would have liked walk to kept this ball in front of him that thing’s just dying away from you as a tough play as an outfielder now we’ve got the umpires talking something else over Runners are at second and third as Bergman comes in to score the fourth run Johnson doubling for the sixth time this season 18 runs driven in now that’s the fourth hit for the Bears they’re second in this inning what do you think this conversation is about your guess is as good as mine and we need we need microphones on on umpires the only only thing that I can figure is occasionally if a sign of out or ball down is not made if they’ll give the benefit of the doubt to a base runner who’s waiting to see what the umpire’s call is you know what I mean out in left field but that looked pretty easy and they’re going to put the runners at second and third there’s another flare that’s going to land in left field off the bat of Posey and charging across the plate is abadaka for the second time tonight it’s 52 Baylor and posy is two for two with two runs driven in Tod Johnson will stop at third the Bears keep piling up runs off Davis and there’s that change up and that’s out over it’s a good pitch posy does a nice job staying through the middle Bren Davis having bad luck on some of these getting weak contact CN I sing C and I doubles but the problem for the sooner Lefty is that pitch count is getting up still nobody out and here is Hunter tolansky who walked back in the first the first five batters of the game reached Bas safely against Davis here in the second the first four have reached this is the two-time reigning Big 12 pitcher of the week as you said there’s been a little soft contact of course an error in the first but also a hit batsman a couple of times a walk o and two now to tansy got some action in the U Bullpen like Jamie hit down there the Lefty big strike out there for Davis it is his second of the night first out recorded in the second inning comes back to that change up that thing’s right down the middle very hitable pitch tolansky just way out over his front foot expecting fast ball Davis has gone five innings Plus in nine of his 12 starts this year not looking like it could be that tonight going to have to get some outs in a hurry Castle shows bunt pushes it toward first Snider will not throw home he’ll throw to first and that time a good job by Nicholas the second baseman taking the throw Ty Johnson will score and courland Castle will get credit for an RBI laid down a good bun toward Snyder who had to make a split second decision yeah this is Mitch Mitch Thompson just getting some insurance runs early this is a good safety squeeze Castle does a nice job putting the ball in the first baseman’s hand Snider really athletic play by him trying to go home with it at first and then flipping the hips making a strike to the second basem Jackson Nicholas so it is two down posy is the runner at second and three more runs across in the inning Baylor scored three in the first and three here in the second five hits total and here is Olman who drove in a run with the sacrific fly back in the first [Music] that a little upstairs to Daniel [Music] Alman played an inning and two3 and we have eight runs on the board tonight did he go around yes he did says the plate umpire Ryan Marine if you told Mitch Thompson earlier in the week he’d have a a four-run lead in the second I think he’d be smiling he may be three balls and a strike now Bears have done a nice job capitalizing too obviously air in the first inning uh lot of cni I singles but still making a lot lot of adjustments at the plate off that change up of Davis that one fouled off of catcher mudler for a Full Count what a good job mudler has done back there behind the plate for Oklahoma saving the legs of eastn carmichel who has dhed a good portion of the Year mudler defended well and hit and there’s a walk to Olman runners in first and second now two down and already approaching the 50 pitch mark is Braden Davis Grant [Music] Stevens so it is Stevens out there getting loose Kate Fletcher stands in he was a strikeout victim his first time up against Davis [Music] and O and two leer the eighth batter of the inning the Bears also sent eight men to the plate in the first inning got three runs in each what a start for the Bears strike three call fast ball on the Inside Edge Fletcher a strikeout victim for the second time tonight but more damage done by the Baylor Bears offense skip Johnson go with a fast ball in the inner half freezes Fletcher really good pitch right there Bradon Davis Geico can help when you’re locked out with their easy app and 247 Health dad you don’t have to make this is so tough on yourself Geico can help us get into our locked car see yeah but where’s the fun of that maybe I’m just nostalgic for the good old days before we had Geico’s great coverage and 247 help all set guys let’s go again whatever you need from coverage to service get more with Geo sorry party’s canceled waiting on the cable internet guy first I have cable but those cords weren’t me so he switched to T-Mobile i wii I need home- get home internet from T-Mobile now just 50 bucks a month it’s how you finally meet the neighbors kingsb it’s how you do it hey man you like Dr Pepper I do it’s a pepper thing I need to try it first 6-2 Baylor bottom of the second coming your way from lale Mitchell Park in Norman what a great treat that is snow cone being in enjoyed and this game was enjoyed by Oklahoma fans just a short time ago up the road as the Oklahoma suers advaned to the Big 12 championship game tomorrow at 6:30 as Oklahoma will try to win the conference Crown right there where the Women’s College World Series is played and there’s a chance that they will take on Baylor as Baylor and Texas will play game number two up there in Oklahoma City here in just a little bit we’ll keep you posted on what’s happening there here it is 62 Baylor three runs in each of the first two innings Jackson Nicholas slices this one fouled toward the Oklahoma Bullpen of course these teams will have their eyes on some of the other series being played around the conference this weekend Oklahoma keeping an eye on Oklahoma State West Virginia and Texas the closest pursuers to the Sooners for the Big 12 Reg season title Baylor they will also have their eyes on Texas Tech Texas Tech’s playing in Stillwater this weekend in fact that game got underway about an hour before ours did here Baylor in the L column is tied with Texas Tech for 10th place and the top 10 teams will make the big 12 Championship down in Arlington at the end of the month nichlas sends one in the air well hit to Center sends Johnson back on the verge of the warning track to pull this one in for the first out Mason Marriott has been able to retire the last four Sooners after spikerman doubled and madon tripled here is soon a shortstop Jackson [Music] Willets you think we would have had more home runs at out of here on a typical south Breeze kind of a night here in Norman Blake oh absolutely we had one for the Bears in the first in the top of the first that was end up being a sack fly Spike had one in the Gap madon had one I think maybe even that one has a chance on a normal day at lale that one if nothing else you would think would have gotten off the wall out there in Center it was hit hard by Nicholas here’s Willets five hits in the Texas te series feeling better he came out of the game on Sunday tweaked a little something in his leg but he was full go at practice on Wednesday said skip Johnson look good in batting practice a ball and two strikes to Willet this one right above us here in the the Press Box and a catch made down below the Ricochet catch you don’t get that very often players on the in the stands here give up on that one think it’s over the The Pavilion here nice concentration to look it in that youngster keeping his eyes on the ball that one fouled off of the catcher Castle good crowd tonight one again for this series opener set the stadium record on a Friday night of the Texas series with over 48 fans 4,800 fans at lale Mitchell Park Willet drives this one to straightway left and Bergman came in charging and then decided he better let it bounce which he does and a one- out single for Jackson Willets he gets a fast ball late in the count here away little two seam run on it this is a freshman that’s really slowed the game down look at that gets in his legs shoots it the other way good piece of hitting he’s gotten his confidence back as Jackson Willets starting short stop as eight true freshman from day one SP a little time off just let him get over there and as you said let the game slow down a little bit but since he has returned he’s been very good and he’s been good defensively the whole time even when there were struggles at the plate and I wouldn’t even say it’s struggles at the plate the what I like to look at Chad is that walk to strikeout ratio and for a freshman he’s sitting at 23 walks to 26 strikeouts he really separates balls from strikes well I don’t think hits were fallen for him now the power numbers have come up in last month uh that started in that OSU series but he has really just found a way to do not miss his pitch you saw it right there he gets a fast ball away stays short and does the right things with it mudler had two doubles against Texas Tech in the Friday game out in LC last week and two balls two strikes to mudler impress with Marriott he’s he’s left a couple fast balls over the plate got got hurt on him but that slider’s good he’s got a 93 mph fast ball that that slider sitting about 82 and mixes in well has confidence with it can throw it for a strike Mar it’s two- two to mudler and it will stay at two balls and two strikes see those College World Series appearances for Oklahoma five in a row 72 73 74 75 76 all under the great coach enus Seymour who will be honored with his jersey retirement here tomorrow ceremonies about 3:30 number 24 going to be retired their strike three called to mudler for the second out coach Seymour so many great teams and and great players of course our longtime late partner up here the great George Frasier would would talk about those days with Coach Seymour and all the great players Bob Shirley and Keith Drumright and Jackson Todd Bobby wit Joe Simpson So Many and Skip Johnson just said I’m I’m so happy probably should have happened before but to have it on my watch is great as Oklahoma head coach even for me he would come before games and sit in the in the cages and just kind of talk the game a little bit you know it’s always fun to to have a mind like that around the program and definitely deserving of that number being hung up in the rafter one to Jason walk leaving things at one and one to the sooner left fielder walk got the start out in left field in the third game out in LC last weekend scored a couple of runs still getting used to it out there in left short stop and then a center fielder played a lot in Center when John spikerman was out with his injury he’s a dynamic Player handles the bat well will get a bunt out when he needs to fast covers a good Outfield position and really separates balls from strikes very well as well that ratio is sitting at 12 walks to 14 strikeouts doesn’t strike out a bunch it’s good for a freshh to [Music] see there’s ball four right on Q he draws that two out walk Sooners roll the lineup over here in the second that is the first walk issued by Mason Marriott tonight it’ll draw a little visit from James leverton the pitching coach Texas Tech alumnus and a recent grad 2016 did you play against him you remember I couldn’t remember that was my freshman year we went down to Tech that year you talked about going down and and getting a sweep from the Red Raiders that’s something that’s never happened in Tim Tim tadlock’s era uh very special to do normally just going down and winning one game feels like a win the sters have had success down there the past couple years that 2022 series they went down there and got a series win uh to set them up in the postseason but it feel it always feels special when you go down and do something like that not many teams have done [Music] it so here’s spikerman who drilled a double into the right center field Gap in between the two o’s in Sooners on the right center field wall swings at the first pitch and bounces one to Alman ining over couple of men left by the Sooners we head to the third with Baylor on top [Music] 62 oh yeah hot honey pizza and wings from piz pizza hot pizza

for the Baylor Bears tonight six runs through two innings against the sooner Lefty Braden Davis the reigning two-time Big 12 pitcher of the week he goes to work against Tyreek Kemp the short stop Kemp is a junior out of roddam in the Netherlands and came through Western Oklahoma State College down in Altus Oklahoma what a journey that is from Rotterdam to Ala splake to Waco and now wakeo he just loves farmland you know could be you ever been to that Al and windmills you know there there are windmills out in love as well Altus there’s some out there and rdam I think’s famous for windmills just feels right at home then huh strike out Tyreek Kemp and that’s back-to-back strikeouts now when you go back to the final out in the second yeah here’s the slider you’ll see that against lefties that thing doesn’t start out as a strike at all it’s a really good a two- pitch two strike pitch buries it gets the swing over here’s Caleb Bergman Bergman got the party started for the Bears in the second LED off with a base hit and came in to score on a double by TI Johnson to left if you’re Davis now you just got to kind of grind through a couple three more Innings if possible am I right Blake yeah you’re just trying to extend this outing I wouldn’t even say he’s got good stuff that change Up’s working man you see the slider he just struck out camp on I I think you got to find a way to get to the fifth or sixth here any way you can run it up to 100 pitches and and hand it off to your Bullpen fly wall madin calls for it two down pan not really fighting the sun maybe just a little bit out there in a right that one was a high popup and Enzo abadaka bats for the third time in three Innings got hit by a pitch and scored in the first or I should say in the second reached on an error and scored in the first good to see he’s okay after getting hit in the [Music] wrist I think that tape provides some padding not just TV tape as they call it explain TV tap well for me I I didn’t ever have any wrist problems but I would just try to look cool with some rist tape ah TV tape for the cameras for the cameras it’s all for the cameras willit takes care of that popup Davis works his first

had mom driving him to practice games and making sandwiches and bringing drinks at the end of it Blake uh the most underrated thing is getting the stains out of the pants in this Oklahoma Red Dirt amen Ivory soap by the way borax borax Clorox whatever it takes whatever it takes this is ripped into right field as madon turns on a 1-1 pitch and has his second hit of the ball game leadoff single in the third madon tripled home spikerman in the first yeah fast ball inner half here get another look actually a slider that he goes down and gets Little Hook Barrel Yaga take that all day East Carmichael had an RBI ground out to third his first time in fact he drove in madon who had tripled prior what another great year eastn Carmichael is having just a sophomore lot of wear and tear as a catcher skip Johnson was you know Easton Carmichael has been catching since he’s like 12 years old you get back there every game gained a little weight over the summer strengthened himself and certainly having Scott mudler to alleviate some of the catching duties has helped him physically as soon as have had a lot of catching Duos really good catching Duos over the years you remember Justin Mitchell the Brady Lindley Duo mhm that one squirts off the glove of Posey then that D that duo turned into Jimmy Crooks and Justin Mitchell as well right Jimmy krooks St Louis Cardinals organization he came out of the 2022 draft was on the Oklahoma College World Series runnerup team Baylor’s got an awfully good catcher now playing in the big league Shay Lang leers with the A’s yeah one of the better defensive catchers you’ve ever seen steals strikes handles a pitching staff very well and he’s got some pop for a catcher as well which I mean it all has the making of a Hall of Fame catcher yeah you hit 20 home runs a year as a catcher in the big leagues name your price bouncing ball right back to Marriott he’ll throw a little bit low out to second base won’t have time to get carmichel Tyreek Kemp and Daniel Alton nearly ran into each other tried to take the throw K eventually taking it for the out second base umpire having to lock in on that one little bit of smoke and mirrors the hidden ball on that fielder’s Choice yeah so Carmichael at first as madin is cut down and here’s Michael Snider seen this come up a lot the engage rule both the pitcher and the hitter have to look each other in the eye mhm it’s kind of sweet if you think about it Chad like a Old West showdown pulled into the hole and out into left field it’s the base hit by Snider moves carmichel into scoring position walk out of the saloon gets a breaking ball up here kind of rolls over it perfectly placed through the six hole Michael Snider continues his Very Good Year going to be up for all Big 12 honors and Anthony McKenzie is in Kenzie grounded out to ultman the second baseman is first time not this time that is smoked out into left field stop sign will be given at third base to Carmichael and Oklahoma has the bases loaded and the potential tying run coming to the plate with only one out it’s a good swing by McKenzie here hits this ball too hard to the left fielder [Music] Bergman for Carmichael to score on that one good job by third base coach Russell rley holding him up Bas is full one out and a big opportunity here for Nicholas Nicholas drove the center fielder Ty Johnson to the warning track and was put out in the [Music] second and an offs speed pitch to start from Mason Mariott 348 home runs 24 driven in for the sooner second baseman Jackson Nicholas and after a fast Ball but comes up empty Maria setting up a slider back foot on the Lefty Jackson Nicholas slider first pits for a strike fast ball away gets a swing and Miss then elevates the fast ball look for a slider down a little too far down marot up to 46 pitches and only in the third it’s going to be the bull pins later in this one base is loaded and a Full Count now on Nicholas [Music] [Applause] a basis loaded walk makes it a 6-3 game what a patient bat by Nicholas a sign of a veteran hitter right there going up looking for his pitch base is loaded knows that Marriot has to come to him on that 3-2 count pitch marot throws a backup slider think he might have got the back edge of that plate East did Carmichael in to score the run and now the Sooners have the go-ahead run at the plate with Jackson Willets he’s got to be careful here nothing too good try to get a ground ball will it’s deep drive to straightaway right abadaka shading his eyes and makes the catch just shy the warning track Michael Snider will tag Andross the plate and it’s a two-run game it’ll be a sacrific fly driving in a run for Jackson Willets 64 Baylor now good job there by the Freshman for his 28th RBI on the year get some over the plate he can handle doesn’t try to do too much with it looks like a fast ball belt High look at this swing nice calm compact parties out front big dog windy your night who knows I mean we’ve had a lot of offense 10 runs in three Innings but I’m telling you it could have been more winds blowing in if not just straight down right now and here is mudler strikeout victim his first [Music] time hard to elevate when it’s blowing straight down one and one now to Scott mudler mudler the seventh batter in the inning [Music] Sooners have about hit the Bears 65 tonight we’ve had only one one two three inning by either pitcher one and two now fast ball [Music] and it’ll stay one and two to the junior catcher Scott mudler driven in 24 runs this year Miss mudler not sure that would have been expected at the beginning of the year but you defend and keep your bat lineup you continue to get opportunities that’s been the case for [Music] mudler good job by married in the Run game keeping Nicholas at Bay at first base trying to get that easy out at second base still in play hard hit ground ball Alman was shifted way out almost into right field and he’s able to throw out mudler Sooners get two on three hits and leave a pair 64 Baylor moving to the third Geico covers dead batteries with their easy app and 24/7 Health you reached the dead end monster nope I’ve got Geico you’re

enjoy the go with [Music] charman have you had your Hershey’s I need to try it first Rocky start but steadier in the last inning and two3 for the sooner Lefty Braden Davis the back-to-back Big 12 pitcher of the week anything you spot that’s different recently for Braden Davis I think just not being afraid of contact and I think that bound visit from head coach giip Johnson late in that first inning may have helped him settle in a little bit he the defense wasn’t working for him a lot of seeing eyes singles but he’s just kind of been more in the zone and and not less fine with his pitches trying to attack guys and just extend his outing got a one two three in the third just trying to capitalize scheduled to face two three and four in the lineup here Johnson posy and tolansky Skip Johnson as you said full faith and trust in this left-hander and his ability to go deep in his starts really has set Oklahoma up for the weekend that’s what that Friday night lengthy start can do you stay out of the bullpen it it almost kind of helps put everybody in the right seat on the bus for the weekend doesn’t it right and I think we put too much faith in stats Chad I like I said earlier we sometimes success isn’t measured in strikeouts ER you know walk rate stuff like that but just being able to extend your outing get into that six try to have a quality start going pitch by pitch can really have an outcome on your whole staff Baylor’s got five hits would say three of them hit squarely hit hard I couldn’t agree more here is the 02 Johnson just Taps that one foul but the problem for Davis this Point’s going to be that pitch count a sitting at 64 after that one you really want to try to Lo be in that 10 pitch per inning that’ll extend you out at least into the e swinging a Miss picked up by mudler and he will throw out Ty Johnson who had been two for two with two- run scor that is three strikeouts in the last five hitters for Braden Davis that’s a slider down you’ll see it against lefties that thing doesn’t start as a strike it’s a really good two- strike pitch mudler Popp up like a cat throwing a strike over to Snider at first base and here’s Posey who’s two for two with two runs driven in tonight the Baylor first baseman he’s a really good story that Mitch Thompson was telling us about this week kind of struggled in the fall and maybe got bypassed as he shoots this one into straightaway center field spikerman ranges back and has it but posy had never played first base and he was out of the line but they had injuries at first base they said we need you to get in there Greer Pendergrass a couple of the guys who had been hurt helped him to pick up reps at first base that got him back in the lineup and now he’s hit as we’ve seen tonight with two hits you never want injuries especially eight in the pre-season and and just riddled across the roster but it’s really nice to see guys come in and step up like posy that just maybe not may have been overlooked as you said and and just find yourself in the lineup every day that one got somebody came flying in seems like he’s okay Small Smiles over there I’m not sure that was who got hit I think they got the Ricochet you got to give the guy who got hit the ball right yeah I’m looking over there just going to kind of watch that was not who got hit in the end though that ball landed on someone and took a bounce that’s kind of why we’ve got a delay as they’re checking on the fan who got hit on the drop tough to tell there’s a big crowd they’re going to get some medical attention over there tolansky will dig back in and an 01 ball and two strikes now tolansky walked in the first and then struck out in the [Music] second just a little upstairs maybe a bit in and two and two [Laughter] pulled to third McKenzie over to cut it off and that’s another one two3 inning for Braden Davis back to back one two three Innings and his offense has gotten the Sooners back into it 64 Baylor moving

weekend and they’re down three starters Sam crane Jack little and then Hunter Simmons and will Pendergrass goes out recently likely all of them out for the season it has hit the regular lineup a little bit harder than the pitching staff but there’s been some pitchers out and then back in and it has been a difficult season to withstand you think think about Baylor Blake they were 8 and seven going into their weekend series against Kansas they won the opener so they had a nine and seven conference Mark but they’ve dropped eight in a row had another injury in the West Virginia series as Jason walk drives this one into the Gap in right center field he can really run he’s going to try for the Triple Bears a little delayed getting it back in and walk will Cruise in he’ll get three out of that second triple of the night for the sooner offense he makes fast people look not fast loses a shoe coming into third base ran out of his shoe yeah Little Stirrup adjustment get it back under the [Music] heel [Music] sure it’s a classic look he’s got on there Chad little tweener with a a thin Stirrup little 9 in Stirrup were you a stirrup guy were you a tweener were you all the way down look it was whatever got the boys wins I’d try something different daily I like it look at this turns hard around second base yeah about second step off of that that’s got to be hard you can’t dig anymore on this Turf you just kind of slip in your socks I think he would still beat me in a race without cleat you think so look I want to be on your side I want to back my partner but there’s a chance that that would occur we’ll have to get that set up so walk has walked and tripled in this game and here’s spikerman sends one in the air to left Bergman will have to play it on a hop and we have ourselves a one-run game walk trots in after his triple spikerman has his second hit and it’s 65 now 18 rbi’s on the Year this one’s a little bit different kind of an excuse me swing on a two seamer away throws the hands at it he’s really good at that stays back that fast ball’s in the right-hander Batters box just flips it out there for a single he used to do that a lot as a freshman get down to two strikes and just wouldn’t even use his legs just throw his hands just really hand eye dominant you know these two guys that we have just seen walk and spikerman there are a lot of similarities between the two and and the word is explosiveness and it’s in every element they can do it in the field you know Spiker throwing guys out at the plate stealing a base to get into scoring position or hitting the ball out of the ballpark and and walk has a lot of those same characteristics four out of five tool guys yeah I would think that spikerman have a little bit better arm than jwok but you’re absolutely right just Dynamic throughout the throughout all facets here’s madon who just continues to hit he’s got a triple and a single tonight potential go-ahead run at the plate for Oklahoma Baylor once LED this game 62 a ball and two strikes now we’ll see if Mason Marriott can settle down nobody out it’ll stay one and two on Bryce madon madron has seven home runs in Big 12 Conference play he leads the conference in runs scored with now 56 for the season 36 walks on the season just kind of copy and pce from last year guy that separates balls from strikes very well and and now he’s got the power numbers to boot doing damage in the zone it’s a Fly ball at the center Fielder Ty Johnson there’s the first out here in this fourth inning Spiker stays at first spikerman going to protect that surgically repaired wrist hand area had the hammade bone surgery after being injured in the TCU series seems like a long time ago doesn’t it does here’s Easton Carmichael he’s driven in a run and scored a run tonight Castle able to block that may not look like much but that is the potential tying run over there first base that would have been in scoring position if not for that play to add on to that Mary’s done a nice job in the Run game Reggie Willis maybe not seeing something he could take advantage of with marot on the mound Castle behind the dish yeah the Sooners have yet to attempt a stolen base in this game which is pretty rare especially considering all the base traffic they’ve had three balls and no strikes to Carmichael Marriott being really careful with the sooner DH and it’s a four pitch walk so now the go-ahead run is aboard with one away and Michael Snider will be the batter Bears going to huddle up here as the corner infielders tolansky and Posey along with the catcher cland Castle come out yeah this chat is just a hey man you’re a one pitch away just try to get a ground ball here with Snider let your defense work turn a lot of double plays 44 out of 47 games they’ve turned to double play it’s t to get one here and go hit Michael Snider had a base hit and scored a run in the sooner third [Music] [Music] have to give a lot of credit to Braden Davis as well these last two innings he’s gone one two three on the mound after Baylor got three in each of the first two innings that’s allowed this Oklahoma offense to kind of gain its momentum one and one to Snider [Music] two and one to Snider you mentioned it a moment ago Blake but Baylor has been able to get out of a lot of situations like this 44 double plays turned leads the Big 12 yeah 13th nationally and that you got to you got to think defending the baseball is very important no double play here it’s a base hit to left field spikerman is around third and we are tied on an RBI single by Michael Snider it’s six AP piece and RBI puts Snider one away from 50 living in that six hole gets a fast ball down and in this thing’s roped Snider has driven into spikerman has scored two and the Sooners post two runs on now three hits in the inning and Oklahoma’s got nine hits through four Innings off Marriott only one out and here is McKenzie Mackenzie one for two he had a base hit back in the third [Music] come back come back popped up that’ll get foul out of play long way from over as we are not even halfway through this one 12 runs on the board 75th pitch thrown by Mason Marriott headed home and into left field Bergman will Circle it a little bit but Chase it down two down hit pretty hard to the opposite field by McKenzie I can’t help but keep thinking the wind’s got something to do with this game we’ve had a lot of runs scored 12 in four Innings you’ve said it once and it could be a lot more so here’s Nicholas he drew a Bases Loaded walk to score a run in the third he’s also flyed out to center field go ahead run in scoring position with two [Music] down just a little bit off the plate with a fast ball there from Marriott e Carmichael back safely at second base feels like a pretty dangerous pitch coming right here from Marriott that can’t be a fast ball over the Middle Jackson Nicholas looking Dead red here it’s a good get me over slider and a 2-1 count to the sooner second baseman Jackson Nicholas that’ll Square it up and two and two comes back at him with a fast ball little smoking mirrors on this at bat think that give me over slider set up that fast ball in he can go anywhere with it really good job in the Run game Chad lot of picks keeping base runners on their [Music] toes fouled off Nicholas’s foot that’s always the worst you got a two strike count you got to you got to find a way to to get yourself right in a couple circles around the the skirt here come back in and find a way to battle check a look at this it’s going to be a slider in oh goodness on the back one right on the top yeah that doesn’t feel good there’s no meat on the top of that foot well he didn’t chase that one Nicholas drew a Bases Loaded walk his last time up there he’ll get a payoff pitch from Mason [Music] [Music] Marriott and you are right about Marriott in the Run game it’s very deliberate but there’s an importance to it you got a really athletic team on the Bas F and the Sooners there go the runners as Nicholas lifts one to left over near the line Bergman in foul ground has room and the inning is over but the Sooners tie it two runs on three hits and an adventure here for Jason walk Blake a good swing the triple in the Gap man that thing just gets flying almost gets above his head a lot of ground force ends up scoring fun inning here [Music] Geo can help when you’re locked out with their easy app at 247 heal dad you don’t have to make this so tough on yourself Geico is sending someone to unlock our car right now yeah but where’s the fun of that whatever you need get more with Geo Ste your keys we want hot dogs and a body that doesn’t look like it eats Hot Dogs sadly we can’t have it all except at Sport Clips where we check in

little advice from SM of ice varing now thank you to our Cornerstone television Partners U health and anheiser Bush and our Community Partners Fowler Auto Group OU Health OG&E and cocacola six a headed to the fifth inning at lale Mitchell Park in Norman sooner baseball is brought to you in par by Courtyard by Marriott seems very appropriate since the Bears have a Marriot on the mound tonight this one lifted into the seats and foul by courland Castle back-to back one two three Innings out on the mound for Braden Davis and that’s allowed Oklahoma’s offense to rally and get this game even Davis at 74 pitches you know the way that he’s gone the last couple of innings he could go another inning potentially maybe two he’s done a good job of keeping his team in it Castle drills one to straightway center field but easily playable for spikerman that is eight straight sat down by Braden Davis [Music] did you have cards defensive cards to look at in your back pocket did you need the the note card out there in the Outfield when you were playing no but I liked it because normally we would have a hitters or a defensive meeting before the game and you kind of had to remember it all of it so obviously having in the back pocket is easy but we’d really just normally look at uh defensive coach Brent Beno he’d give us a uh left or right back up a hair here on this guy but makes it the scout a whole lot easier I would not go out there without my cheat card it’s hard to remember yeah Daniel Alman drove in a run with a sacrifice fly in the first and then he drew a walk in the second bman had a three hit game in the final game of the TCU series swings and Pops this one up out behind second base Jackson Willets on a big league popup two down yeah I didn’t think this ball was ever going to come down Chad High sky tonight good job by Willet staying on track with the baseball securing the catch for out number two bears are going to pinch hit with Harrison kayy Senior out of the Woodlands Texas in a transfer from abalene Christian he’ll bat for the DH Cade Fletcher here lecher had been 0 for two with a couple of strikeouts so the Bears will give Kayley a crack with the B is empty and two gone and he is quickly in a hole 0 and two [Laughter] off Davis’s bare hand and Nicholas won’t be able to make a play would he have been better off to just let it go that’s the great debate isn’t it Chad you know you you don’t mind your your pitcher trying to be an athlete occasionally but I don’t know that Ball’s hit pretty well up the middle I think either way it’s 5050 get another look at it if he makes that you love him for it still got a chance with Nicholas but he’s got to take the bare hand to have time tries to throw it before he receives the baseball so it’s a base hit for kayy in the pinch hitting roll gets Tyreek Kemp to the plate and it also extends the pitch count for Braden Davis that is 10 pitches though in this inning Kemp is over for two with a strike out and one and one the count on the Baylor shortstop the bright side and you always have to try to find that with all the injuries that Baylor has had stories of guys who might not have played without the injuries we’re talking about posy and Daniel alman’s another one of those guys alman’s played all over the place second base center field left field and he’s produced Davis is one-1 to Kemp there goes the Runner Kaye one hop throw and a great tag by Willet to get the head first diving Kaylee out so the Bears try to sneak the go-ahead run into scoring position Scott mudler says not this time we stay tied at six halfway through this one what defense by a sooner catcher Blake yeah little bit of el Mago going on nice job by mudler using the ground willit getting him on the toe there good concentration applying the tag out number three I need to try it first here for rad hour huh rad hour H or happy hour happy hour it’s 11:15 at the garage it’s always time for a good time not a boy we start early every day with old school burgers and fresh cut fries plus beer and Cocktails if you need something stronger so pretty rat huh yeah keep it classic the garage you’re my very best friend you’re my best friend I need to try it first beautiful evening here at lale Mitchell Park for the opener of this three game series to close the regular season at home for Oklahoma look at the big 12 scoreboard presented by Air Comfort Solutions your total Home Solution for plumbing heating air conditioning and electrical make the winning call today day Texas a winner down in Orlando Kansas State tried to come back against West Virginia in Morgantown Oklahoma State All Over Texas Tech in the top of the seventh up at o stadium in Stillwater TCU out of conference play Houston beating up on Kansas tonight Cincinnati and BYU Midway through in a low-scoring affair out in Provo so what does that do for these teams as will it’s gets hit by the first pitch here in the bottom of the fifth inning soon’s going to put the potential go-ahead run aboard Willet big contributor tonight has a single a sacrific fly to score a run and now he gets hit by pitch by Mason marott so those scores we just saw well Oklahoma State West Virginia and Texas are the three teams closest to Oklahoma in the Big 12 race and two of the three of them are winning Texas is already as far as Baylor’s concerned trying to slide up to 10th and make sure they get into the Big 12 postseason Championship I think those games helped them Texas Tech losing now has more losses if they fall to Oklahoma State they would have more losses than Baylor in conference play depending upon what happens with Baylor tonight so a Texas Tech loss and a UCF loss would help Baylor as well and the Bears will finish their regular season hosting UCF next week in Kansas State West Virginia just went final with Kansas State winning 4-3 so that helps Oklahoma a little bit as it gets them a little more Breathing Room away from West Virginia this one kind of skyed out behind second base by mudler and taken by Alman for the first out there’s a long way to go so trying to play this score game and Skip Johnson is as good as there is in the country at next pitch don’t look ahead it’s it is the motto of what his program is about with culture and all those sorts of things but it’s one pitch at a time it really is and it highlights itself in in a season like this with the Sooners holding a lead in the first in first place you know you you got to stay in your your Dugout stay in your locker room and this team does a really nice job of hanging out together as as our friend Carly Mur Murray pointed that out earlier uh it it it seems like eyewash at times but it really comes to play in situations like we have Jason walk drew a walk in the second and then he tripled and scored in the fourth he scored on spikerman RBI single two and0 the count three balls no strikes top of the sooner lineup on Deck 9 pitches now for Marriott and a four- pitch walk walk has been on base three times two of those have come via the free pass so Willet hit by pitch walk with a walk and the go-ahead run is in scoring position for John Spiker man who’s got two hits and that may do it for marot Mitch Thompson the head coach is out of the Baylor Dugout and he’s going to the bullpen so Mason Marriott unable to get out of the fifth inning here tonight in a tie ball game at six we’ll tell you about the new Baylor pitcher when we come back to lale Mitchell Park so our first relever comes in the bottom of the fifth Inning on this Friday night in Norman [Music] Geico covers dead batteries with their easy app and 247 Health you reached the de end monster no kidding dead batteries are the worst but no worries Geico gives me even

brought to you by mathys Hol official Furniture sponsor of OU Athletics the Trails Golf club offers the perfect atmosphere for Great Golf and family fun visit Trails golf.com Pizza Hut the official Pizza of the Sooners the new pitcher for the Bears is left-hander and he’s a two-way player and that is RJ ruay he’ll replace Mason Marriott and what a tough situation here for ruay Oklahoma has the potential goahead run in scoring position and only one out and the 21st appearance so a reliable Lefty out of the bullpen pulled here by Mitch Thompson yeah you see that win loss record at 2 and0 got a 5.12 erra 31 and 230 innings pitched 35 hits got 30 strikeouts to 17 walks we saw him at at Tarlton on that Tuesday game threw an inning gave up one hit one run it was earned struck out one and I think he got the win in that one he also dhed in that game dhed and pitched reached base safely and retired a full Inning on the mound that’s getting it done left-handed sh maybe I I love how that the game has changed in that way and one person is really changed I think there’s a another minor leager now that is coming up through the ranks who is playing playing both ways so I think it’s really good for the sport no doubt and at the Collegiate level in particular roster spots can save you a lot and be very productive spikerman the switch batter will bat right-handed for the first time tonight two for three in this game a double and a run score scor in the first and then an RBI single and a run scored in the fourth Spiker RBI single made it a 65 game and then Michael Snider’s base hit tied it at six MIT Thompson said Ru has had some good moments lately he was honest he he said that you alluded to it in our open he who has the best Bullpen wins we’ve seen it coming tonight with the struggles of the starting pitchers early that we would get into the bullpen here we are Midway through into the bullpen there’s a four pitch walk to spikerman base is loaded and madron strolls in rice madin tripled and scored in the first then had another base hit in the third felt like he was probably going to make ru throw a strike yep four pitches four straight balls Bases Loaded have to automatic take one and one to the sooner right fielder hit ground ball to the second baseman Alman he’ll go to Kemp and the throw pulls him off everybody is safe and the Sooners take the lead we’ll get a look at the replay and see exactly what happened but Jackson Willet who was hit by pitch has scored and Oklahoma leads at 76 a Paka flips the hips flows a little bit wide be an error on Alman on the throw madon safe Willet scores walk is at third this one pulled foul by East carmichel Baylor has defended very well and you mentioned 44 double plays which is what that could have been instead the error helps give Oklahoma the lead Carmichael shoots one into right center field that’ll fall in for a base hit Jason walk is into score right behind him is Spiker and Oklahoma leads at 96 on a two-run single by Easton carmichel continuing a good day at the plate that’s his third RBI of the game on that single hasn’t square a ball up yet but getting the job done see him stay back take that off speed pitch away float it into Right Center that air coming back to bite Alman two-run score after what could have been a double play Sooners have plated three and that’s the first hit here in the inning carmichel has driven in three runs in this game now and here’s Snider who tied the game at 66 with a base hit back in the fourth madin down at third Carmichael producing again down at first base one and one to Snyder who’s two for three RBI and a run scored for Snider tonight 30 runs driven in in conference play for Snyder second most of anybody in League Play Oklahoma now seven unanswered runs after trailing 62 they have taken the lead in the bottom of the fifth inning and their starting pitcher still in the game I mean Braden Davis could come back out you would think Blake yeah he’s been up to 112 pitches in that Oklahoma State outing got to think he could at least go another inning maybe two he’s thrown 86 as Davis going to depend on how efficient he is in his sequences going to be interesting to see Snider whacks this one foul tomahawked that one out of play just missed in that’ll evening things to two and [Music] two there goes Carmichael from first it is a one hop throw and the tag is applied out there by the second baseman Alman so Carmichael gets caught stealing and looked like madron never got a good look to try to break home and steal a run still the Run game is really really helpful to the be the Bears nice throw good pick and tag out number two that’s a big out number two that it is and now the bear s with a 3-2 count Shi the infielders over and that’s a shot pass to plansky into left field it will Chase home madon Snider cruises into second base and the Sooners lead at 10-6 that was a Missle at Hunter tolansky who reached out and could not spear it you know Snider’s going to get his hits you just don’t know where they’re going to come from he’s really good at going the other way but making his living on the left side of the field you’re right I love him controlling the barrel at the end of that swing Chase Utley did that a lot when he was playing I really admired that that’s just that’s roped so Snider now with a three hit game he has driven in two and the sooner lead 10 six eight unanswered runs and here is mckeny who’s won for three tonight four runs on two hits and an error in the inning keny rifles this one fouled ow and two on the sooner third basem he is the eighth batter of the inning 11 hits for Oklahoma tonight sooner second in the Big 12 in batting average coming in and they lead the league in conference games in hitting they strike three called inning over ruay finally puts out the fire but the sooner SC score four and take the lead 10-6 Oklahoma headed to the sixth inning Geo covers dead batteries

then you are the one and only MC Krispy Oklahoma has turned a 6-2 deficit into a 106 lead Sooners lead the Big 12 by three games coming in five sweeps in conference play 18 Big 12 wins coming into the night they’re both since 2004 and if the Sooners could get a sixth sweep in conference play they would get at least a share of the Big 12 regular season title that’s pending what happens of course with other teams one more weekend series left for each of these teams as we mentioned earlier Oklahoma will be at Cincinnati next Thursday Friday Saturday and those same three days Baylor will host UCF to close out conference play there’s a by ball that lands in center field off the bat of the short stop Tyreek [Music] Kemp it’s another controlled swing saw one from spikerman earlier there he is right on command cemp does a nice job of getting a fast ball in the middle of the plate using his hands well just serving it into left Center New batter here for the Bears Megan Parton it will be Caleb Birman he hit the left fielder one for two with a run scored back in the second is Bergman how about the job by Braden Davis tonight consecutive one two three innings in the third and fourth and then he also faced the minimum in the fifth inning gave up a single but got a caught stealing so he’s faced nine guys in the last three Innings that’s kept him in this game BL you mentioned His Highest pitch total for the year 112 that that was number 91 right there he’s looking good since that second inning obviously putting up three zeros but I guarantee you he’s the first guy dabbing the guy up that just scored 10 runs healthy run support got to love your offense you never know how it’s going to unfold this is a guy that pitched a combined no hitter against West Virginia and here he is tonight giv up six runs but still in position to pick up his fifth consecutive [Laughter] win strike three called to Bergman he’s got that strikeout number up to six let’s take another look at fast ball right at the [Music] knees I mean that’s a good angle right there you see a catching the bottom of the strike zone just paint back to the top of the order for abadaka K counter six of them they were passing those out when you came through the front gate this afternoon abadaka has scored two runs out of the leadoff spot been safe on an error and been hit by pitch it’s also popped up to Willets the short stop each team has committed one error Sooners about hit the Bears 117 off the end of the bat a roller Davis pounces to it little bit of a low throw but well played Snider digs it out and abadaka is retired athletes Chad they’re athletes first 12 batters this goes back to an RBI single by Cole Posey in the second inning he see just one strike out gave up six runs since then he has been lights out he’s been the guy that’s been out there just about every Friday night in the Big 12 Johnson Two Hits and two runs scored that change Up’s been nasty tonight hasn’t it yeah first time we’ve seen it up against the left hand at batter he getting through that third or fourth time through the the lineup trying to mix some some different things up change up his sequences not get caught it’s a good pitch there and now Ty Johnson’s thinking hm what do I do right when he’s locating three pitches for a strike he’s tough to hit that Johnson not chasing get my calculator out for this one hter pitches 67 strikes I think that’s 67% he been in the [Music] zone really settled in nicely solid math partner product of more High baby the alliance trying to get him to Chas on the last couple of pitches but Johnson not getting outside the strike zone Davis struck him out in the fourth Little Fly ball that’s going to fall down the line and left around third comes Kemp he will score and it’ll be a double by Ty Johnson his second double and third hit of the night and the Bears get back within a run as a hitter you take all these you can get jammed on a fast ball that’s almost on his knuckles it goes off a double off the wall in the book I tell you that Chad scoring Kemp puts him within three bears resilient Sooners have life in the bullpen and that might be it for Braden Davis on the night gives up the double to Ty Johnson with two outs here in the top of the sixth inning skip Johnson will go to his Bullpen for Dylan Crooks 10-7 Oklahoma top of the sixth inning sooner baseball presented by OU Health on sooner vision from ESPN plus Geo covers dead batteries with their easy app and 247 Health you reached the dead end monster nope I’ve got Geico you’re not Frankenstein’s monster no that’s his cousin Trevor whatever you need from coverage to service get more with Geo introducing the most powerful Tacoma ever with the shut the front door hand you build Culture by having to deal with difficulties as Baylor has had said it’s been a work in progress but he has been proud of the resiliency that has been the strength of this Baylor Bear Squad under tolansky walked back in the first he’s over for two tonight Dylan Crooks back out there this one rifled to deep left field but room out there and Jason walk will track it out Jason walk still learning left field and Blake you were an outfielder a lot of time in the corner Outfield spots what’s the hardest part about playing Left Field well everything from a left you just got to know your batter in my mind you got a left-handed batter right there and tolansky everything that he hits is more than likely not going to be backs spun it’s going to have some Sid spin to it uh that one being that and you kind of drove it a little bit more so you really got to get out there in BP and get your reps in uh take that like game reps and see the ball off the bat really lock in it’s easy to get kind of led to sleep out there not a whole lot of action but uh you do a good job in BP you prepare yourself and and I think he’s athletic enough to be able to field that position really any Outfield position for Jason walk Brooks deals low to courland castle castle got hit by pitch in the first it’s part of the three runs that the Bears got to start this thing had an RBI ground out in the second and this one into shallow Center spikerman maybe went back a half step but plenty of speed to cover a lot of real estate two gone three up and three down out of the bullpen now for Dylan Crooks to go back to reading the the fly balls Chad that ball looks like it’s barreled up from center field so that’s why he’s taking that first step back anything up you think that you’re looking for trajectories right uh with that one being off the handle it’s hard to read but got to be athletic like I said get your work done in BP spikerman one of the best what’s the hardest Outfield position to [Music] play I would say Center because most of the time any ball that’s hits you is is that’s on a line is squ up look at him have a little bit of fun out there dancing around I would not be I would not be that way but that’s how spikerman plays now balls right at you are hard to read uh especially ones that are hit well and I think those mostly come in center field because I mean it’s the biggest part of the field everything’s flowing through the middle of the field um like I said I can’t speak enough of just getting your work in a BP just that’s that’s where you get live reads and guys just kind of let it eat sometimes so it’s it’s easy to get those reads one and two on Daniel Alman Oklahoma has shifted three infielders on the right side of second base and that strike three a fast ball from Crooks he’s retired all four men he’s faced out of the bullpen we hit the seventh inning stretch in Norman with Oklahoma leading at 107 to me Marissa was a beautiful young lady that was just full of joy the answer that the doctor gave us was that the hopes and dreams that you have for your daughter are not going to be realized I remember when the Life share woman came in and said did you all know that Marissa was an organ donor the thought coming into my head that someone was getting a call feeling a sense of hope for the first time in a long time and that was the first glimmer of hope that we felt from growing up with the Tuttle Tigers to playing with the Sooners my whole life has been about teamwork but the team I’m most proud of is the one at Air Comfort Solutions in the last 15 years the ACs team has helped hundreds of thousands of families and businesses stay comfortable I know something about winning teams and when you call ACS you’ve made the winning call hi I’m Heather and a little thing I love about the Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich is getting the perfect bite it’s probably not the first bite it’s the second or the third with the juicy chicken and the delicious pickle the bite with the pickle is it I mean that is like the magic combination hi I’m Jennifer a little thing I love about the Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich is the combination of the warm soft bun against this delicious piece of chicken the bun is just this soft little hug around the chicken that’s so perfect in every bite Oklahoma has rebounded from important to have a guy who can play well on both sides of the ball and it ended up being a huge momentum shift it help the sooner sweep the Raiders and love it yes it did and and Skip Johnson was talking about this play he said I think it was important as the two-run home run that spikerman hit and you you use that word explosive Blake it doesn’t have to just mean at the plate yeah that was a cannon of a throw that was a that was a one-run ball game at that point kept it a one-run lead pitcher Jamie hit on the mound getting him out of that inning I mean you can bring momentum from all types of the field Skip’s big on that keeping that momentum in your Dugout and and Swings in a game like that especially in a key game three when you’re trying to go for a sweep it it it means a lot to a team RJ ruay back out there J ason walk has been on base all three times he’s come to the plate two walks and a triple with a run [Music] scored man it’s fun to watch him go from first to third isn’t it it is especially when shoes are flying everywhere it’s a hazard you got spikes up in the air big swing and a miss on two two Ru has been good since initially giving up the base hits to Carmichael and Snider out of the bullpen he’s got four strikeouts out of the bullpen now yeah I think that fast ball plays up a little bit a little bit of high RPM high spin rate on that fast ball tying up lefties gets jaywalk there hit from the right side first time that walk has been retired tonight here’s spikerman who has also been on base three times and he went after that one spikerman doubled and scored in the first grounded out to second base in the second then a base hit driving in a run in the fourth and a walk with a run scored in the fifth it’s interesting Spike uses two different bats from right-handed to left-handed that that handmade bone on his left hand this one pulled past the third baseman to plansky out into the left field foul ground where it is picked up by Bergman and spikerman standing at second base with a double for the second time [Laughter] tonight really seen it well from both sides it’s like a change up they just got over the middle of the plate rolls over but hits it well scoots past the glove at to plants get third base nine doubles for Spiker on the year two tonight 12 hits for the Sooners and here’s madon who tripled back in the first Sooners have two triples in this game walk and Madrid just the way that this team has exploded offensively in particular in conference play the bulk of their home runs 39 of their 58 have come in conference games and the doubles mean the Gap power and the speed that Oklahoma has shown he did not go around on the appeal to third I think it has a lot to do with the the air warming up you get that south Breeze in late spring balls are going to fly a bit more you get a little bit more carry not to mention that guys are doing a good job in the zone okoklahoma with 50 8 doubles which leads the Big 12 that ball came in and hit madon see where this hits him oh right on the rear he’ll take that it’s 89 it could be in the small of the back of all places to get hit you don’t mind that one that much no you’ll it’ll just hurt to sit down tomorrow but it’ll be okay so spikerman in the double madron hit by pitch little conference here going James leverton came in with head coach Mitch Thompson two seasons ago to orchestrate the pitching for the Bears Bryce madon has been on base four times in this game I think he’s saying yeah that hurt a little [Music] bit and here’s Easton carmichel carmichel a two-run single that got the sooner some separation back in the bottom of the fifth inning they had taken a 76 lead and Easton delivered a two-run single to make it [Music] 96 the runs driven in and a run scored to Third and under the glove of tolansky out into the left field foul Corner chasing home Spiker madon racing around third headed to the plate the throw is Right On Target but he slid in there and he’s called safe by the plate umpire Brian [Applause] [Music] maren Castle instantly coming up giving the air muffs this one’s close so I think we’re going to have a review on the madin play at the plates and we will for now two runs in to make it 147 or beg your pardon 127 and they’ll have a look at it but east carmichel with another hard hit ball which way you going on the scoring down there at third Blake you’re still thinking about it aren’t you I am I’m going to have to see a replay to be honest with you it was close throw was right on the money right on the dish looks like he tapped tacked him on the right hip but Castle instantly won the the replay see here foots up then we got a out the original call was madin safe will it be overturned with the way this game’s going it’s still a big call a five Run game there’s been a lot of runs scored Eon Carmichael delivering again drove in the two runs back in the third able to drive in for now two more third review that we have had tonight and still no decision rendered either way you don’t mind them taking their time to look at it making sure you get the right call if I’m correct the SEC has their own review center correct kind of like New York in the MLB they have emerged and the call Will Stand two runs home 127 Oklahoma Well Chad I think you and I are 0 for two on review calls I just Tred to stay out of it I need to take a note in that maybe just not enough to overturn that and Mitch Thompson is back out evening may be done for Ru and it is so the third Baylor pitcher of the night coming out of the bullpen Oklahoma leading 127 Baylor LED this game 6-2 and Drew leech right-hander has been summoned to enter this one gico can help when you’re first appearance for Drew leech sitting in a two and one win loss record ER of 576 25 Innings given up 29 hits 27 strikeouts to 17 walks last time he threw was May 5th against TCU just one third of an inning giv up a hit in a run and walked one leech has thrown 10 scoreless innings in in 2024 Thompson trying to get an out right here maybe hav’t finish up this inning see if he can extend him out Dre rer JR out of Houston came through Alvin Community College he is second in appearances with that number 21 and here’s Michael Snider three hit night for the sooner first baseman East carmichel has a season high five runs driven in in this game [Music] Sooners now have four doubles and two triples Michael Snider with three singles in this game takes a [Music] strike lead a tall fella 63 220 kind of a crossfire motion fast ball sitting at 92 with a little bit of run to the to the arm side [Music] thank you pardon Snyder has two singles and a double in this game wax that one foul one and two two more driven in for Snider tonight season total now 50 and he is 13 of 14 in the stolen base department is Michael Snyder three seasons at Washington he had no stolen bases but he’s got 13 steals this year Wills has a way of getting that out of guys we can finally call it a game Chad that was a foul ball between his legs and in in the seventh inning we have a game where does that rule come from where does is that your have you made that up that’s just cuz I was sitting so much on the bench I was just I just made it up just an observation you just look for it I didn’t know there’s a lot of analytics and Stat keeping these days so maybe you would stumbled upon something a Full Count here to Snider [Music] [Music] [Applause] be charged with trying to get the final couple of outs Mason Marriott went four into third Innings and RJ ruay two innings Marriott gave eight runs Ru two earned so far [Applause] and there’s ball for low to Snyder his fourth trip to first base [Music] tonight Anthony McKenzie will be the batter Kenzie had a base hit back in the third Sooners got two runs on three hits in that third inning to start scratching their way back in once again Baylor LED six to [Music] two Oklahoma took the lead with that four-run bottom of the fifth this one air mails back to the back screen skims the glove of Castle and Carmichael moves to third Snider to [Music] Second infield is in now for the Bears [Music] McKenzie ropes this one to right that will drive in a pair Anthony McKenzie gives Oklahoma a 147 lead with his first two runs driven in Carmichael and Snyder both score and this RBI single makes it an even 40 see what it is fast ball down Little Hook Barrel box it up skip will take to dozen four more runs across on three sooner hit by the first baseman Posey he’ll take it to Kemp the short stop to get the force play on McKenzie and Nicholas is safe at first nicely done there by Cole posy yeah yeah taking his momentum towards second base throwing it on the run to the shortstop Kim getting the sh out at second base for a guy that’s never played there he’s he’s athletic flashes the leather a little bit Jackson willings now for the Sooners Willet had a base hit in the second got hit by a pitch and came in to score the go-ahead run in the bottom of the fifth inning scored on an error three balls and no strikes to the sooner Short Stop Willet is the eighth batter in the seventh [Music] that’ll take it to three and two [Music] in the air to left long run for Bergman he won’t get there Nicholas was running with the pitch he’ll make third base and stop there on a double by Willets may have been a base running Mistake by Nicholas on this double got two outs you’re going on contact you got Russell rley the third base coach whe and dealing Nicholas maybe holding up see him slow up oh no that’s the sign to go get back quickly third time and here is mudler five doubles and two triples for the Sooners in this [Music] game and that one hits mudler the Sooners have batted around here in the seventh inning and the bases are loaded once again Jason walk has been on base three times two walks and a triple he has a run [Music] scored Sooners have four runs Bears of hit two and walked one to help things and two and0 you talked about walk’s ability to separate balls and Strikes yeah this this fast Ball’s running away from him too so that that thing looks like a strike and at the end it just Dives away in that right-handed batters box he’s in position to walk for for the third time Sooners with a two-run double from Carmichael a two-run single from McKenzie in the inning and that will plate another run as it hits Jason walk and he is on for the fourth time tonight Nicholas [Music] scores 15-7 Sooners now yeah 3-1 count a you hate getting hit just take your walk oh that one’s going to bruise and so once again pitching coach James leverton is out to chat with leech just hasn’t been able to find consistent control three hit batsman in this inning by bears pitching Sooners roll the lineup over for spikerman spikerman madrin and walk have been on base four times a piece in this game [Music] and spikerman is going to bat for the sixth [Music] time two doubles and a single with a walk for [Music] Spiker he has scored four runs in this game driven in two and leads with a strike right through there Oklahoma turning a four-run deficit into an eight-run lead in this [Music] game spikerman with his most runs scored in a game this season and four of them he scored 30 for the year and one and two [Music] now spikerman the 11th batter in the seventh inning for the Sooners that one bounces off of Castle and Willet is in to score 167 on a wild pitch this looks like a change up that kind of slipped out of the hands of leech ends up too far to Castle’s right to be able to glove it get a body in front of it before will count with first base open on Spiker here six runs here in the seventh to blow this game open and there’s strike three Spiker retired on strikes to end the seventh inning but the Sooners post six run Ella Parker Cassidy Pickering Ellie mackenro the Sooners have returned from Oklahoma City after their win in run ru fashion over BYU in the Big 12 semifinals they will take on Texas which has defeated Baylor in the semi-finals up in Oklahoma City tonight so the Red River rivalry in the Big 12 championship of softball tomorrow evening in the meantime here will carsten the 67 senior from San Antonio is in for the Sooners yeah I got a 01 win loss record 964 yard ra 14 Innings 20 hits 10 strikeouts to nine walks and I think why we had might might not have seen more of him this year is that walk number sitting at nine want to see him be in the zone you got a a big lead here to try to find a p in the zone get ahead early he came out of the bullpen to help Bren Davis finish up a win in lck skip Johnson said he’s just gained some more confidence he went two innings in that outing shuck out one didn’t give up any [Music] runs he pitched for Baylor coach Mitch Thompson at mlin and Community College for a couple of years when Mitch was there won a junior college title 2021 will Carston was 10 and one that [Music] year the physical gifts are evident I was right on that track he he might find him play in a in a big league uniform just CU he’s got long levers can find some success in the big leagues 67 220 reaching out and touching somebody with that arm action [Music] strike three called 93 mph fast ball Zack maach hitting there third guy to bat in the DH spot for the Bears tonight he strikes out yeah it’s got a little bit of late life almost a two seam action little Picasso the black one away here’s Tyreek Kemp right back up the middle under the glove of Carston and into center field second hit for Tyreek Kemp tonight looks like jaywalk moved to center field Kendall pentis into the game and left you are right defensive adjustments for the Sooners there’s walk man will take the rest of this one [Music] off and that’s actually danan Harris and left slow Chopper McKenzie into to play it and won’t be able to throw out Bergman who beats the rid first and has an infield single yeah this is a tough play that’s a little five Hopper macken’s got to be on a Sprint does a nice job of throwing from that arm angle so that’s two hits for Bergman tonight in the number nine spot and the Bears roll the lineup back to the top for Enzo abadaka he’s been on base twice and scored twice Bears rallying here or trying to against will [Music] carsten 10 hits now for the Bears in this one Sooners have 15 light activity continues out in the [Music] Bullpen two balls into a strike looks like Ryan Lambert and Malachi Witherspoon throwing two and two on aboda this one foul toward the Baylor Bullpen and it’ll stay two and two on Enzo abadaka abadaka reached on an error and scored in the first then got hit by pitch and scored in the second it’s Baylor sprinted out to a 6-2 lead there’s have managed just one more run since then came in the sixth inning and Oklahoma has done what they have done better than any team in the Big 12 this year and that is swing it long run over there for Harris that’ll get foul into the bullpen so good a bat working here for abadaka pulling a fast ball into the right field F fighting off a pitch away trying to use the whole field beautiful breaking pitch there from will Carston his second strike out of the inning yeah this is a slider little knuckle curve that thing looks like a fast ball out of the hand just drops right off the table it’s a good pitch that is eight strikeouts for sooner pitching in this one and Ty Johnson who has a three hit night including a pair of doubles will stand in does that add up to eight don’t get me to Counting Chad I think I see nine there’s a swing and a miss maybe they’re anticipating something with the nks up there [Music] that’s fouled out of Play That’s because stat broadcast is incorrect Blake looking at my scorecard I have nine how about you I’ve got nine as well I’m a I’m a way less experienced scorekeeper than you but it also proves that you can’t trust technology trust the ks by The Dugout [Music] yeah Richard usually on top of the strikeouts he can’t wait to put those things up binder clips on the ready hit off off his Depot on the way over here make sure he had plenty got and he’s looking like he’s he’s got him all perfectly level across there takes his job seriously roller to Nicholas and the inning is over well Carson gets a couple of strikeouts gives up a couple of hits and Oklahoma takes a 16-7 lead to the bottom of the eighth inning schol 5115 lb Drew freshman and to try to pitch the Bears through the eighth inning Oklahoma on top 16-7 Blake he’s sitting with a one and0 win loss record 11 erra 18 Innings 24 hits 19 strikeouts 14 walks seems to me like a stock righty 86 to 88 maybe a little slider from a different arm ankle kind of three quarter Marriott we’ve seen rues and Drew leech and now suula for the Bears expected starter is Ethan

didn’t didn’t say that I just asked if you had that happen no I had I had two I think actually nice they’re fun yeah they’re a lot of fun uh for me just seeing it off the bat I like to see it towards the right center field towards the E and the r and Sooners uh I’m thinking three off off out of the gate if it’s rolling a little bit you know it’s just a longer throw for the right right fielder center fielder whoever picks it up did you ever lose a shoe like Jason walk did no I tied those those things so tight I was losing circulation I had plenty I had plenty of help slipping and falling just from being a clutz there’s a leadoff walk to maton that is the fifth time in six plate appearances that he has reached base safely in a different manner every time triple walk error hit batsman and a walk for Bryce madon to reach first base by any means necessary and here is East carmichel who’s driven in five runs in this game thank you paron soon’s going to pinch hit get some time for Patrick enof here he will bat for Easton carmichel this guy can run it’s a triple we in to happen as well and a strike from saula sixth game for Patrick enof [Music] two balls in a strike in Scout

the Bench there hadn’t seen one in a while really composed fighting off pitches with two strikes finally takes a walk that is eight walks surrendered by Baylor pitching tonight Michael Snider will bat for himself he has three hits including a double in this game Snider’s double gave the Sooners a little bit of Separation made it 10-6 back in the bottom of the fifth Oklahoma had taken the lead for the first time in that inning out in front of that one and one and one the count Snider’s been on base four out of five times he’s come to the [Music] plate suula is 2-1 and in danger of walk walk in the base is loaded that will send it full job by Snider getting his swing off on a 3-1 count fast ball elevated on time with it not giving away at bats late in this game sticking to his [Music] approach and the bases are loaded on walks in the eight it looks like that will do it for the Freshman Ste seula MZ Thompson back out and he will make a pitching change with the bases loaded and nobody out in the eighth inning Bears will go to their fifth pitcher of the night Andrew patski a right-hander will enter with the bases loaded and nobody out [Music] Jimmy Austin OU Golf Club where

Queen City Cincinnati at savior Tuesday and then their three-game regular season ending series with the Bearcats beginning next Thursday that one bounces away initially it looked like we would see Bryce madron come in to score but he puts the brakes on that Xavier game Tuesday will hit home a little bit for me they beat us out in the 2017 Regional in Louisville a little sour taste in my mouth with them you don’t sound bitter maybe a little I hit a double in the game so I’m I’m I’m [Music] iffy it’ll stay three and two on McKenzie [Music] 23 runs and 25 hits combined skip Johnson’s team

Nicholas gives Oklahoma a 197 lead not giving away a bats here gets a fast ball over the middle of the plate little two iron right over the glove of Kemp at shortstop bringing in inav so the Sooners

look like the Zone might be expanding a little bit the 12 Run game but it’s a walk to Lane that is the fourth walk of the inning and now Scott mudler will get a shot 10 walks by the Baylor Bears tonight kind of the story of it Thompson just trying to get to tomorrow without using his best [Music] arms Scott mudler the seventh batter of the inning he’s been on base one time was hit by pitch in the seventh inning one and two now to mudler only sooner in the starting lineup not to record a hit to first base throw goes to second base abadaka I believe does hang on long enough to get the out he

inning over but the Sooners get three more and they’ll try to close it out when we come back for the top of the ninth Anthony McKenzie’s going to move from third to short Isaiah Lane who got pinch hitting duty is down at third now what will stand out to you about this night I think Braden Davis staying in the game keeping your team in not having your best stuff game not treating you right but but finding a way to get a win sooner offense obviously and and Baylor walks one air on that Baylor defense on a costly double play that might have kept this game close there’s a lot that sticks out obviously we got a lot of runs scored but you know we got to read Hensley with a 0 and0 win loss record he’s got a 292 ER 12 in a third Innings pitch s hits 20 strikeouts to 10 walks just trying to get the Sooners out of here in the top of the ninth they’ll face Mason Greer for the Bears batting for Posey in the number three spot hosy had a good night though he was three for five with two

Davis is in position to pick up his fifth consecutive win he lasted five and two3 six earned runs five strikeouts but he is The Sooner pitcher of record as the offense rallied but he had three straight Innings he had two one two three Innings and then he had an inning where he gave up a hit but got a runner thrown out at second base so he faced nine guys in those three innings in the middle really stabilize this game for Davis as Hensley deals strike three to Jack Johnson two down he going to show face that breaker that’s a fast ball right down the middle thank God for replay well you
