BOXSCORE

The Cowboys will head into the postseason playing their best baseball of the year.

Oklahoma State defeated Arizona State 7-4, sweeping the weekend series. This was OSU’s third series sweep in conference play.

The Cowboys and Sun Devils traded off single-run innings to start. OSU was up 2-1 after two and then 3-1 after five before ASU’s two-run sixth inning tied it up, 3-3. Oklahoma State took a 4-3 lead in the top of the seventh before flipping the script with a four-run seventh to seal the win on its final home game in 2025.

Brayden Smith had himself a weekend. After going 4-4 with a home run on Friday, he went 3-4 on Saturday with a two-run homer. But Smith got his first notch on the scoreboard with this stolen-base score in the fifth to put OSU up 3-1.

Then he drilled a two-run homer in the bottom of the seventh to give the Cowboys a 5-4 lead which they would never relinquish.

Later in the seventh, Nolan Schubart rocked a solo home run to push it to 6-4.

Then Colin Brueggemann piled on another round-tripper to make it 7-4.

Four different Cowboys threw from the mound. Hunter Watkins got the start, pitching 5 1/3 innings, allowing eight hits and three runs while striking out eight. Ryan Ure earned the win and improved to 2-4. He allowed two hits and one run in 1 2/3 innings, striking out one. Sean Youngerman pitched the eighth, allowing one hit and Gabe Davis pitched the ninth, allowing not hits or runs and grabbing the save.

With the win, the Cowboys finish their season 27-22 overall and 15-12 in conference play. The Big 12 Tournament will take place May 21-24 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas.
