End 4: PUR 6, OU 0. Hermelyn drives a base hit to right for the Sooners second hit and is left on second.
End 6: PUR 6, OU 1. Aikin extends hit streak to 10 games with a 2B and Neuse drives in his Big 12-leading 18th RBI. Seriously is Purdue good? Kind of kicking our ***...
Without the really terrible bunt defense in the first inning, it would be a pretty close game at 2-1.
Mid 9: PUR 6, OU 1. Last chance for the Sooners as they send Haley, Carpenter and O'Brien to bat. Well barring a rally...
Three walks and the bases are loaded with two outs for the top of the order. Purdue still in front, 6-1 in the bottom of the ninth.
RBI 1B to shallow center from Aikin makes it a 6-2 game with two away in the ninth. Pitching change for Purdue.
Alspaugh draws a bases-loaded walk to bring the Sooners within 6-3 and put the potential game-tying run aboard in the ninth.
