Noah Sifrit entered the game as a defensive replacement, but he was the offensive hero who kept Oklahoma State’s baseball season alive.
Tied up in the bottom of the ninth inning of the NCAA Super Regional in Lubbock, Texas, Sifrit — a Lubbock native — walked, moved to second on a wild pitch and took third on another wild pitch. Then, after some other drama, Sifrit came across to score on the third wild pitch of the inning for No. 9 OSU’s 6-5 victory over No. 8 Texas Tech Saturday night.
The deciding game of the best-of-three series, with a spot in the College World Series on the line, will be played at 5 p.
