NORMAN, Okla. – Oklahoma baseball hits the road for its first away midweek game of the season against No. 4 TCU in a non-conference match-up on Tuesday night. First pitch is set for 6:30 pm from Lupton Stadium.
Fresh off a series win over No. 10 Texas Tech, the Sooners are 17-9 overall with a 2-1 Big 12 record and received votes in the USA Today Coaches Poll. Oklahoma features .300-plus hitters one through five in its lineup, led by junior center fielder Craig Aikin (.352). The Sooners leadoff hitter moved to the three-hole the last two games. He leads the Big 12 with 25 runs scored. A fraction behind is junior Kolbey Carpenter (.352), who, like classmate Anthony Hermelyn (.303), has started at three different positions this season. Carpenter is slugging a team-high .604 with five home runs and 19 RBI, while Hermelyn has doubled seven times and knocked in 18 runs. Redshirt-senior right fielder Taylor Alspaugh (.304) is coming off a four-hit day and has scored and driven in 16 runs. Sophomore shortstop Sheldon Neuse (.303) rounds out the group with five home runs and a team-best 24 RBI.

Scouting the Horned Frogs
At 17-4 this season and 4-2 in the Big 12, the Horned Frogs designated hitter Cody Jones leads the team with a .370 batting average and .506 slugging percentage. TCU's catcher, Evan Skoug holds the team-high with 14 RBI and three homeruns. On the mound, head coach Jim Schlossnagle, who guided his squad to the College World Series in 2014, turns to left-hander Tyler Alexander (1-1). Alexander, the Frogs Sunday starter a year ago, has started four games this season to the tune of a 3.48 ERA and 19 strikeouts in 20.2 innings.
Last Time They Met
It was Alexander that locked up the series win for TCU in Fort Worth last season. He tossed eight innings of one-run ball to pick up his seventh win of the season; a 9-1 decision for the Horned Frogs. TCU put up a four-spot on Adam Choplick in the second and added five against Robert Tasin in the fourth. The lone Sooner run came off a solo home run by Neuse in the fourth.
Kings of the K
The Sooner pitching staff leads the Big 12 with 241 strikeouts; averaging a league-best 9.27 per nine innings, which is 0.79 more per nine than the next closest team. Sophomore RHP Alec Hansen struck out 10 vs. Texas Tech (3/22) and leads all Big 12 pitchers with 47. Tied for third in the league is Jake Elliott at 37. OU pitchers have struck out 10 or more in 15 games this season.
