No. 8 Texas Tech sweeps Kansas with 6-3 victory

The Red Raiders knew what was on the line as they traveled to Lawrence, a place where Texas Tech had lost five straight.

Coming off a 2-1 series win over TCU in Fort Worth, the Red Raiders clutched a two-game lead over Oklahoma State for first place in the Big 12 standings.

Behind stellar outings by a pair of freshmen starters on Friday and Saturday, Texas Tech claimed its first series victory over Kansas since 2010.

Sunday, in a game with a 10 a.m. start time due to expected inclement weather, the Red Raiders powered past the Jayhawks to a 6-3 victory for the first series sweep over Kansas in Lawrence since 2004.
