‘Discipline over emotion’ fuels Baylor baseball to avoid OU sweep

By Michael Haag | Sports Writer

In consecutive series, Baylor baseball salvaged the final game, this time a 16-8 win versus the University of Oklahoma Sunday afternoon at L. Dale Mitchell Park in Norman, Okla. The Bears dealt with heartbreak and adversity throughout the weekend, dropping the first two matches, but snagged the last contest over the Sooners to avoid the sweep.

Well before first pitch of the final game of the series, head coach Steve Rodriguez wrote “Discipline over emotion” on the lineup card for the players to see. Sophomore infielder Tre Richardson said this helped level their approach and proves what this team is capable of doing when they do so.
