Sooners take series with 6-0 shutout by Parker. Keyed by Pendley's 1st inning slam.

I assume that means the game will start about 3:00 but not sure. The technical staff isn't horrible. They usually have a wide angle camera to replay what was missed.

I'm superstitious, and will start a separate game thread for game three.

Clifton is leading off, Arnold in the two hole. Knighten got it started with two out. Five straight reached, and Baylor's coach complained about the strike zone.

4-0 for Parker.

I was watching the box score. Best start in a while came at a good time

 

[Plainosooner]

Really inconsistent zone today. Sooners get one in the second on Arnold's bouncer booted at second. Dalton scored at 3rd.

 

[Plainosooner]

Parker threw out a bunter for the first out. After a double, Wodach threw her out stealing third. Then Cargill out on a soft liner to left. 3-0 heading to B3.

B3

Two singles put runners at first and third with two outs, but Dalton flied to deep LC.

5-0 after three.

 

[Plainosooner]

T4 Bears get a runner on a two-out walk,, but no damage. Knighten threw out another bunter.

/////////////////

Sooners go quickly in B4 on a pop up and two easy grounders.

5-0 after four.

 

[iasooner1]

The gals need to slam the door on baylor now

 

[Plainosooner]

Baylor gets two one out singles, but Parker strikes out the next two.

Still 5-0.

/////////////////////

Selman has 7 pitch innning to get OU in order. Through five, Selman has thrown only 73 pitches allowing five runs. Parker has five shutout innings but 99 pitches.

 

[iasooner1]

Well that went too quick.

 

[Plainosooner]

Quick t6 for Parker. A called strikeout and two ground outs.

Sooners load the bases on a two singles and a walk off Baylor's number three pitcher. Arnold called out on a close play that scored the run with Selman back in the game. 6-0 headed to the seventh.

 

[iasooner1]

At least we got one more in 0-6, top of 7th

 

[Plainosooner]

Clifton gets the pop in short right for the first out. Parker gets her ninth K on called strike for the second. Romero gets a bouncer on the line to first to end it. Sooners win crucial game three, keeping hope at least a little alive for a top eight finish. 6-0 final.

 

[Plainosooner]

OSU swept Tech so there is a tie for first in the conference between OU and OSU. The Cowgirls go to Waco next weekend, while OU heads to Lubbock.

OU . 11 . 1
OSU .11 . 1
Baylor 9 . 3

Texas had lost twice ever to ISU before this weekend, but the Cyclones won two of three and have won three of their last four, with their win at Stillwater last weekend, the Cowgirls' only conference loss so far.

And Sooner baseball got two in B8, to beat Kansas 7-6.
