That brought the score to 7-4, which wrapped up the scoring as Kansas only got one runner on base the remainder of the game. Freshman Jackson Kline drove in a run with an RBI groundout and sophomore Chase Jans scored on a wild pitch. Back-to-back singles to lead off the inning and a stolen base set up runners on first and third with no outs. In the fifth inning, the Jayhawks trimmed the deficit with a pair of runs. Redshirt sophomore Jake English hit a ball to left field that cleared the fence, but the Oklahoma left fielder robbed a would-be two-run home run for the final out of the inning. Kansas nearly cut into the deficit in the top of the fourth. Then in the third, an RBI double stretched the Oklahoma lead back to five runs by a score of 7-2. In the bottom of the second, OU scored an unearned run on an RBI groundout. The Sooners were able to get those two runs back over the next two innings. Brooks has four home runs this season, with all four coming in the last two weeks. Two batters later, Brooks hit a two-run home run the opposite way to right-center field. Freshman Kodey Shojinaga led off the inning with a single. The Jayhawks responded with two runs in the second inning. Three run-scoring hits and a delayed steal of home gave OU a 5-0 cushion after an inning. The Sooners scored five runs in the first inning and never relinquished the lead from there.

Oklahoma (24-20, 9-9 Big 12) built an early lead for a second straight day. Redshirt sophomore Michael Brooks had two hits and two RBIs, including a home run in the game to lead the Jayhawks.
