Cowboy Baseball Victorious In Series Finale
April 27, 2025 | Cowboy Baseball
CINCINNATIย โ 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.
ย
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.
ย
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.
ย
Schubart went 3-for-6 with a home run and three RBIs, while Brayden Smith also had three hits and drove in a run. ย
ย
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.
ย
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.
ย
And the Cowboys weren't done.
ย
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.
ย
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.
ย
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.
ย
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.
ย
Harrison Bodendorf kept the Bearcats off the scoreboard over the final two innings, striking out three.
ย
OSU returns to action for its final midweek game of the regular season Tuesday night in Tulsa against Oral Roberts.
