Justin Campbell called game.
After Illinois State tied things up in top ninth, OSU outfielder Dom Johnson drew a walk and Campbell, who also started at pitcher in the home opener on Wednesday, came in to pinch hit. In what looked almost like a perfect hit-and-run, Campbell lined a ball into center and the speedy Johnson came all the way around to score the winning run.
The first ever walk-off in O’Brate Stadium.
“I was thinking I need to get this ball either up the middle or toward the gap because if I do that, Dom has the speed to get around the bases pretty quick,” Campbell said.
