Big 12 Baseball Update (2-21-12)

By M. Hofeld

Oklahoma losing two out if three to Pepperdine over the weekend was both shocking and disappointing to Sooner fans but it certainly wasn't the biggest shock of the weekend. That distinction goes to Oklahoma State who was swept at home by Cal-Poly and were shutout twice in the process. How did the rest of the conference handle the opening weekend of college baseball? Take a look...

Baylor 3-0 Swept Oral Roberts in a three game series. Won 3-2, 3-2, and 8-1
Kansas 3-0 Went 3-0 over the weekend with a 7-3 win over Middle Tennessee, 3-1 over Bowling Green and 2-0 over Belmont in the Music City Classic. Righty Thomas Taylor (photo above) was named the Big XII Pitcher of the Week.
Kansas State 1-2 Beat CSU Bakersfield 7-5 in 11 innings on Saturday and the dropped the next two in the series 7-3 and 8-1.
