No. 2 Rams rip Sapulpa, 11-5

GLENN HIBDON Owasso Progress

SAPULPA — Second-ranked Owasso erupted for eight runs in the final two innings, rallying to beat Sapulpa 11-5 in Class 6A baseball Saturday at L. D. Lawson Stadium.



First baseman Austin O’Brien ripped three hits and knocked in three runs in powering a 13-hit attack. Right fielder Mason O’Brien backed up his brother with two base hits and two RBI while shortstop Andrew Rosa, second baseman Tyler Hupp and center fielder Colton Crocker each slapped two hits.



The Rams entered the sixth inning trailing 5-3, but pushed five runs across to take the lead. Crocker led off with a single and was doubled home by Rosa’s blast that caromed off the left center field fence. Catcher Josh Whisler greeted Sapulpa reliever Michael Garcia with a sharp rip down the right field line that drove in two runs.



Ahead 6-5, Austin O’Brien slammed his second double of the game to plate Whisler. Mason O’Brien’s single to right scored Austin. The Rams still weren’t finished, collecting three runs in the seventh. Hupp’s base hit drove in Cody Hutchinson, and Hupp tallied on a Sapulpa error. Mason O’Brien closed scoring with his run-scoring single.



Sapulpa jumped on top 2-0 in the first on a pair of wild pitches by Rams starter Coleman Key. Owasso rallied to lead 3-2 in the third when Hupp singled home Rosa, Austin O’Brien doubled home Hupp and Mason O’Brien’s single accounted for Austin .



However, the Chieftains regained the lead in the fourth. Derrick Fisher delivered a sacrifice fly to score Chad Hall and tie the game. Kyle Naylor cracked a double to center, scoring Kramer Misner and giving the home team a 4-3 edge. Thanks to Owasso’s late innings onslaught, it didn’t last.
