OSU Baseball: Nolan Schubart Breaks Home Run Record as Pokes Throttle Shockers

Breaking home run records at Oklahoma State is no easy task.

Pete Incaviglia has the program’s record for home runs in a season (48) and a career (100) — records that would take a lot to even sniff. But Nolan Schubart on Tuesday night took Incaviglia’s name off the triple crown of homer records, as Schubart hit four in Oklahoma State’s 21-6 win against Wichita State.

OSU’s single-game record had been 3 — something that has happened on 18 occasions and was first done by Incaviglia in 1985.

Schubart finished the game a ridiculous 5-for-5 with four runs scored, seven RBIs and a double for good measure.

As a team, the Cowboys hit nine home runs en route to their 21-run tally. OSU has scored double-digit runs in its past five games. In OSU’s past four, it has scored 61 runs and hit 22 home runs.

OSU is 31-14 this season and still has a shot at winning the Big 12. The Cowboys enter the weekend with a 14-7 record in the league — a game back of Oklahoma. OSU travels to Austin this weekend for a series against Texas before series against Texas Tech (home) and Houston (road) to close out the regular season.
