D1baseball.com has a nice writeup about us today.
http://www.d1baseball.com/analysis/ten-thoughts-saturday-march-12/
The Bulldogs had looked just OK the first three weeks of the season, but all eyes were on them coming into the weekend with a huge home series against an Oregon pitching staff that almost been flawless so far this season. Well, the Bulldogs scored 10 runs in a series-opening victory, before really making a statement on Saturday with a dominant 9-3 triumph to take the series.
Though the offense had their fair share of success in this one, the tone was ultimately set by veteran righthander Austin Sexton, who had a career day on the mound. Sexton, a 6-foot-1, 185-pounder, junior, had a career-high 12 strikeouts while also allowing just four hits in six shutout innings.
Oklahoma vs Mississippi State - Jacob Robson
Jacob Robson (MS State)
Offensively, leadoff hitter Jacob Robson had a quality day at the plate, going 2-for-4 with a triple and an RBI, while Cody Brown and Ryan Gridley each had two hits, with Nathaniel Lowe and Hunter Stovall each knocking in a pair of runs. For the Ducks, ultra-talented lefthander Matt Krook didn?t make it out of the first inning, allowing five runs on two hits in 2/3 of an inning and throwing 17-straight balls at one point.
We?re not ready to anoint the Bulldogs the nation?s best or anything like that, but this weekend certainly elevated their profile a great deal.
