Sooners have a good squad, so this is a big test for the Beavs. A win and they'll crack the top 25.
Barring weather, first pitch will be11am (and remember, Daylight Savings Time).

First question, and most obvious: anyone got a stream link? =)

Dylan Davis has no command at all
Three straight walks after getting the opening batter. Not a good start.
Was that a double steal, or did the runner on 3rd just go in when the run down started happening?
The latter. The play is for the runner on first to get in a rundown so the runner from third can score from third.
Thanks.
Defensive mistake by the Beavers. Runner attempts to steal second with runners on first and third and Rodriguez should never have thrown to second and Smith has to have the awareness to know the runner from third will try to score. Really poorly done all around. Beavers down 2-0
Seemed apparent after second walk that the Sooners were following BB’s advice to force the pitcher to throw strikes, which Dylan could not do.
Conforto with another hit. Runners on first and second for Davis
Wow! Sooners left fielder drops the ball on the warning track. Bases loaded and 1 out for Dunn
Who else was thinking, “He’s going to hit into a double play?”
I was. I saw a bad omen when the count was 1-1
Unreal. Beavers leave the bases loaded AGAIN. What happened against UConn has carried over to today. This team is really bad with the bases loaded for whatever reason. Almost seems like they press and try to do too much.
Beavers playing some truly atrocious baseball.
So many of the Beavers have looked really tentative at the plate.
I don’t know. Last night Jim Wilson was on the OSU 1st base coach because he wasn’t warning the runner that the other team was trying to catch the OSU guy who had just gotten a hit that the other team was trying to catch him off the base as he rounded the corner. According to Wilson this happened twice during last night’s game.
Coaches not being aware of the fundamentals and ………..
Another poor play by the Beavers on defense. No excuse for Dettman to not make the play there. This game has gone as badly as it could.
Good lord. Is this little league?
Beavers are going to get annihilated today
7 – 0 and the 2nd isn’t over with. Shit.
Bye
Remember the optimistic outlook I had five minutes ago when it was just 2-0? Yeah, that’s gone.
Reese is not very good, he forgets to tell you the pitch, whether or not it was a hit or an error, where the runners are, all sorts of important stuff. Hope nobody is trying to keep score with just a radio.
It should be 5-0 at the most. If Dettman doesn’t misplay the fly ball the last 2 runs do not score. The Beavers are just not doing the little things well. Schultz made two mistakes in the field this inning and Dettman in CF made a mistake. What went wrong against UConn is what’s going wrong today. Poor defense and not getting timely hitting.
The Beavers played so well the first two games of the weekend and the last 2 have played as poorly as possible.
I’m in favor of this team’s execution at the moment. Now taking over/ unders by inning on number of LOBs left on. :-P
Hard to have a chance in games when you beat yourselves.
Do my eyes deceive e or did they just turn a good defensive play?
The Beavers still have a chance in this one but the offense need to start coming through and they need their pitchers to step up. Still very early in this game but they need to start putting runs on the board immediately and start cutting into the deficit.
This is very similar to the SDSU game. Offense not coming through, pitching stinks, defense stinks.
I shudder to think what league play is going to look like if this continues.
This looks like a .500 team to me. Pitching and D are the real disappointments.
So they beat the bad teams this weekend and lose to the good ones. Trouble is there’s only one bad team in the P-11. This is going to hurt.
They have time to figure it out. I wouldn’t panic just yet. Defense needs to be figured out though. Have to be better defensively.
Conforto with a solo shot to left. 7-1 now
Dunn on at second. Beavers got a chance to start chipping away and try and get back into this now. Need some timely hitting.
I think it shows how valuable starting pitching will be this season. This weekend won’t be a total loss as I think we have started to figure out our rotation. Fry pitched well and as long as we ease him back and he stays healthy and if Wetzel can continue to throw strikes, we just need that third starter. Childs is not that good and Bayliss hasn’t proved he can do it. The other question mark is Adam Duke, can he come back and become a solid pitcher? He’s got the stuff, but he has to do it consistently. If we can get those three going then it really helps the whole staff.
It’s been disappointing how inconsistent the defense has been in Casey’s last four seasons. I don’t know what we need to do there? I think we sacrifice defense to get offense which we despirately nede.
7-2 now.
Now would be a big time for Keyes to turn on one and break out of his slump
Keyes has all sorts of problems with his swing. I’m not sure how much longer Casey can give him to figure out his problems. His struggles are really hurting the team. Also, he may be taking his struggles to the field. I know he was a key guy and you want to give him time but you can only do that for so long.
Don’t forget Danny Hayes, he was at .196 last I checked and Keyes at .204. Two returnees that you’d expect to be big this year.
Gordon gets picked off at first down by 5 runs. That’s an unacceptable mistake.
Gordon’s bonehead mistake is bigger now.
picked off first, ugh
Smith doubles and runners could be on second and third with 1 out if Gordon doesn’t get picked off. Conforto needs to come up with a clutch hit now.
Two on and two outs for Dylan Davis. Could REALLY use a Dylan Davis 3 run bomb
RBI double for Dylan Davis and it’s 7-3 now. Clutch hit by Davis.
A clutch base hit by Dunn here and the Beavers are right back in the game
Has Tyler Smith won a starting job yet?
If this weekend is any indication, he’s the full time starting 2B
Dunn and Keyes haven’t been good, so maybe he takes one of those jobs.
Ah, if only that out fielder missed that…
That’s just bad luck for the Beavers. Decently hit pitch that just doesn’t fall. Been how it’s been going last night and today.
Riley Wilkerson is in. I figured this would have been Matt Boyd time but it’s not for whatever reason.
John Tommasini has been swinging the bat well but has been basically benched this weekend. I don’t understand that. Considering Keyes is in a big time slump, just move Dunn to 3B, Smith to SS and put Tommasini at 2B.
Wilson and Reese comparing balk to false start in FB, thought for a minute they were going to mention Remmers !
Wilkerson has a ways to go to get mentioned in the same breath as Remmers.
Measured in 10 yard increments.
Wow. OU bailed out Wilkerson and the Beavers. He couldn’t throw a strike and they basically gave him a free out to end the inning. I will take it.
Time for the offense to continue chipping away
Lead-off single by Ryan Barnes. Good start, time for a nice rally
Great game between Mich State and Ohio State.
Beavers need a hit from Keyes in the worst way
Another awful at-bat from Keyes. He looks terrible right now.
if that AB doesn’t get him benched…
Dunatov has been really unimpressive this season.
why do they insist on only playing country between innings?
Beavers will have their shot to score in the 7th with the top of the order coming. I hope Casey takes Keyes out.
Man, it is raining hard
Got Gordon, Smith, Conforto coming up. Time for the Beavers to score some more runs.
Lead-off double for Gordon. Rally time. Got the perfect guys coming to the plate
Runners on first and third and no outs for Conforto
RBI double and Dylan Davis is coming to the plate and is the tying run.
Two run double for Dylan Davis and it’s 7-6 Sooners and it’s still no outs.
Davis the tying run at second w/no outs.
Sooners RF drops the ball. Runners on second and third and no outs for the Beavers
Casey needs to look at bringing Brian Stamps in at CF.
Wow, huge error by Oklahoma. Beavs in great shape.
And the sun is coming out.
Adalberto Santos warming up in the pen.
Parker Berberet will be pinch running here shortly.
I think they may pitch around Jake to face Keyes
Big spot for Keyes, he needs to come through. I fear he may hit into a DP here but Hayes is coming into the game
sweet!
C’mon Stefen Romero. Your turn.
Beavers catch another break. Ball gets under the 1st baseman’s glove and it’s 8-7 Beavers
Wow, Oklahoma is “Beaving it”…
They’re wearing red, so I prefer to think of them as “Couging it”
O.K. I’ll admit it. I’ve been occasionally looking at Game Tracker.
And my timing was pretty good. :-)
gorton sucks
whats up with Boyd? Hasn’t been used this weekend?
No idea. Very odd that he hasn’t been used, not sure if he’s even warmed up.
Come on Beavs, get some insurance runs.
I can’t remember the last time the Beavers had a 3-4 combo like Conforto and Davis. They’ve had guys with pop and some guys with good averages but never both guys with both pop and average and Davis launches one as I type this.
Gotta love the potential of those two freshman for the next three years. :)
Insurance runs like that!
Ryan Dunn with a solo shot and it’s 11-7 Beavers. 11 unanswered runs for the Beavers
More fries with those homers! :-)
To think I came oh so close to turning this turkey off. The weekend just went from bad to great.
Hate to say this but it isn’t over until it’s over.
I’m known for stating the obvious.
probably Jenkins and Ells. Or maybe Canham and Barney
I like how the Sooner wasted their pitching on beating the Ducks and now the Beavs are taking them apart. Thanks Boomer!
I look away for a couple of minutes and miss the homers! Oh well, like the outcome.
Tony Bryant’s changeup is incredible.
Cant believe the comeback on this game
I can hear the fat lady warming up now. One out to go.
Great comeback!
Beavers win 11-7
Tony Bryant is a bad ass. Love the attitude.
That wasn’t crisp baseball by anyone, but I’ll take it. Beavs should crack the top 25 on Monday.
Great comeback by the Beavers. They kept fighting and finally broke through in the 7th. Big win heading into conference play next weekend. Conforto and Davis were awesome as usual. Nice job by Rodriguez and Wilkerson to keep the Sooners off the scoreboard and give the offense a chance to comeback and they did.
So very good for the psyche of this young team. Lessons to be learned for sure, but reinforces the mantra, “never say die” .
I rarely watch baseball but saw the link above and decided to watch online. Great game enjoyed it. Go Beavs!

Beavs lose.
Still #Beavlieving!!!!!
Well, even you have to admit when the team was down 7-0, couldn’t hit with RISP, couldn’t field it and couldn’t get anyone out that you thought the Sooners were gonna win big.
Haha. Where are you when I’m right, Beaverkman? Play both ways or no ways.
Had I known Oklahoma would give the Beavs 5 extra outs (~2 innings worth) and at key points in the game, I wouldn’t have written that so soon. Oklahoma has a solid club, though, so I figured they’d lock it up. Lesson learned. Weird thing is, I’m usually patient with baseball and rarely write a game off…it’s a strange sport in that no time limit means any comeback is possible.
Never did hear why Boyd never got in the game. Is PC holding him back for a starting role to open conference play?
That’s a good theory.
I was thinking they were going to lose, however I kept watching to see if they could pull it off and am pleasantly surprised. With these college teams and you get to last game of the weekend you get games like today. I was just giving you a little heck at your expense, I know you were still rooting them on.
Beavers win Nike College Showcase.
Other scores: Rice avoids getting swept by Stanford winning today, 1-0. Cal State Fullerton takes two from aTm, ucla sweeps Georgia winning 7-3 today, ASU over the dirtbags 6-1 to take the series, Cal wins at Nebraska and the fowl to the south blank UConn 4-0.
Beavs come in at #25
