NORMAN, Okla. – Baylor baseball lost 5-4 to Oklahoma in 10 innings at Mitchell Park on Friday night. The Bears (13-11, 3-5) had an early lead, and bounced back to tie the game twice, but were unable to get over the hump against the Sooners (19-10, 5-0).

BU jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the second inning, taking advantage of a leadoff error that allowed Andy Thomas to reach. Davion Downey singled to move him to second and Josh Bissonette hit a two-out single up the middle to score Thomas.

The biggest inning of the game scoring-wise came for OU in the third. The Sooners scored three runs on four hits to grab a 3-1 lead. However, the lead was short-lived as Shea Langeliers and Cole Haring hit solo home runs for the Bears in the top of the fourth to tie the game.

The Sooners quickly responded with a run in the fourth after a costly error on a single to center with two outs set up an RBI single.

The Bears were able to knot the game again, though, in the eighth. Thomas drew a one-out walk and moved to second on a single by Downey. Haring then delivered a two-out RBI single to tie the game, 4-4.

Both teams were held scoreless until the bottom of the 10th. A two-out single and steal led to a walk-off double by Brady Lindlsy.

OU reliever Connor Berry (1-1) earned the win, giving up three hits with three strikeouts in 2.2 scoreless innings. BU reliever Troy Montemayor (0-1) took the loss, allowing a run on two hits with three strikeouts in 2.1 innings.

The Bears finish their series in Norman, Oklahoma, with a 4 p.m. CT tilt on Saturday.

The team has underachieved so far this season. Not many bright spots this season yet expect series win vs. Tech.

It would seem they blew their whole wad on that series.
