NORMAN, Okla. -- No. 15 Oklahoma was unable to comeback from an early deficit and suffered a 14-9 defeat against No. 20 Kansas State in game two of the Big 12 series on Saturday.

Sunday's third and final game will decide the series for the sixth straight season between OU and KSU. The Sooners have come out on top in each of the previous five game threes.

The Sooners dropped to 31-12 overall with the loss and 9-9 in Big 12 play, while the Wildcats ended OU's four-game winning streak and improved to 30-11 and 10-6.

OU struck first on Danny Black's RBI triple down the right-field line in the bottom of the second but the Wildcats came back in a big way in the top of the third with six runs to chase Bobby Shore.

The Sooners cut the lead down to one, 6-5, after their at-bat in the bottom of the sixth, but the Wildcats put together another big inning with five runs in the seventh and never looked back.

Shore (6-3) took the loss after his shortest outing of the year. Shore surrendered six runs off six hits , including two homers, in 2 2/3 innings, while his opposition, Kyle Hunter, lasted just four innings with four runs allowed off seven hits and a walk.

Hunter had seven strikeouts but did not qualify for the win as reliever Evan Marshall (4-2) picked up the victory in relief with 3 1/3 innings of work.

Garrett Buechele extended his hitting streak to 15 games with a two-run triple to the gap in left-center in the eighth. While the triple was the second in as many days for Buechele, he also tied his career-long hitting streak set in 2009.

Caleb Bushyhead had two of the Sooners' 12 hits on the day, including his fourth home run of the year, a two solo shot to right to begin the eighth. Bushyhead drove in three runs and also crossed home plate on three occasions.

The series finale is set for a 1 p.m. first pitch on Sunday at L. Dale Mitchell Park and the game can be heard live on the Sooner Sports Network (KREF 1400 AM). The game will be simulcast on Cox Ch. 3 live in Tulsa and on a tape-delayed basis in Oklahoma City at 5 p.m.
