CINCINNATI – Oklahoma State got a strong pitching performance from Sean Youngerman, and Nolan Schubart had a big day at the plate as the Cowboys won their series finale over Cincinnati, 8-1, Sunday at UC Baseball Stadium.
With the win, the Cowboys improved to 19-21 overall and 7-11 in Big 12 play, while UC is now 24-20 and 10-11 in the league.
In his third start of the season, Youngerman picked up the win to move to 2-1 as he worked seven innings and struck out seven. The right-hander allowed just one run on three hits and walked two.
Schubart went 3-for-6 with a home run and three RBIs, while Brayden Smith also had three hits and drove in a run.
The Cowboys took the game’s initial lead in the second inning as Brock Thompson delivered a two-out RBI single to right field to score Colin Brueggemann, who slid home safely just ahead of the tag.
In the fourth, OSU doubled its lead when Kollin Ritchie led off the inning with his seventh home run of the season to make the score 2-0.
And the Cowboys weren’t done.
OSU’s lead reached 4-0 in the fourth when a Schubart single with the bases loaded brought home two, and Brueggemann followed with an RBI single to push the Pokes’ advantage to 5-0.
The Cowboys continued to add to their lead in the fifth, scoring twice as Alex Conover drove in a run on a groundout and Smith picked up an RBI single.
After managing just one hit over the first four innings, the Bearcats opened the bottom of the fifth with a homer to break up Youngerman’s shutout, but the Cowboy righty settled in and escaped further damage.
The Cowboys’ final run of the game came in the eighth on a solo homer by Schubart, his 12th round-tripper of the season and the 52nd of his career.
Harrison Bodendorf kept the Bearcats off the scoreboard over the final two innings, striking out three.
OSU returns to action for its final midweek game of the regular season Tuesday night in Tulsa against Oral Roberts.
