Oklahoma State
Oklahoma State is 18-12 and looking to rebound from a week that saw it drop four of its five games. The Cowboys will battle Bedlam-rival Oklahoma in a non-conference game Tuesday at Allie P. Reynolds Stadium at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday's contest marks the first between OSU and OU on a campus site since 1996 in Stillwater. The series moved to a three-game set at neutral sites in 1997 after the formation of the Big 12 Conference. OSU leads the all-time series against OU by a 146-140 count but dropped 2-of-3 games to the Sooners last season.
OSU head coach Frank Anderson is in his seventh season at the helm of the Cowboys and has led the club to 251 wins in his career. The Pokes are coming off a season in which they finished 34-24 and advanced to the finals of the NCAA Clemson Regional. With that showing, OSU became the only Big 12 Conference team to advance to a Regional championship round each of the last four seasons.
OSU is second in the Big 12 with a .326 team batting average, with seven of the Cowboy regulars in the starting lineup hitting .300 or better, and the pitching staff sports a collective 5.09 ERA.
About Oklahoma
Oklahoma is 25-7 on the season and ranked as high as No. 11 in the national polls, and the Sooners have won three of their last four games. OU is hitting .312 as a team, and its pitching staff sports a combined 3.70 ERA.
Up Next For The Cowboys
Following the midweek Bedlam showdown, OSU will return to Big 12 Conference play Friday when they open a three-game series at Missouri.
