Notes:

  • Oklahoma claimed its first series win over Texas at home since a sweep in 1998.
  • Senior Hunter Haley is the only player in program history to have been a part of three series wins over the Longhorns.
  • The Sooners started three or more freshmen for the 17th time in 19 games and the 18th time overall this season. The game was played in front of a season-high crowd of 1,826.
  • Sheldon Neuse stretched his reached base streak to 12 games with a first inning-home run.
  • Neuse's home run was his team-leading fifth of the season and 18th of his career. He passed Matt Oberste (2012-13) for most home runs at OU in the BBCOR bat (2011-present) era.
  • Neuse homered and got the win. Jacob Evans was the last OU player to do so as he hit a walk-off home run over Kansas (4/2/15).
  • Jake Elliott matched his season-high with six strikeouts. Elliott has not recorded a decision in six starts this season.
  • Jack Flansburg picked up his team-leading seventh multi-RBI game of the season.
  • Eight of the last 12 games between Oklahoma and Texas have been decided by two runs or less.
  • The Sooners are 7-2-1 when scoring in the first inning and 8-5-1 when scoring first this season.
  • Oklahoma has won on a walk-off hit in each of its last two home series finales. The Sooners walked off Long Beach State (3/13/16) on a Haley home run.
  • Domenic DeRenzo posted his second multi-hit game of the season. Seven of his 11 hits have gone for extra bases.
