OSU goes walk-happy, crushes ETSU
The OSU offense picked up 13 walks in its 17-7 win against ETSU on Saturday night.Chase Adkison didn’t start OSU’s offensive surge with a big hit.
After a scoreless first inning, OSU catcher Chase Adkison picked up the first of 13 Cowboy walks, which was followed with two more walks and five hits. And everyone got in on it.
That was the case all night for OSU in its 17-7 win against East Tennessee State at O’Brate Stadium on Saturday night. Lots of hits. Lots of walks. The 13 walks were the most for the Cowboys in a game this season.
“You walk because you’re a good hitter and they’re afraid to pitch to you, and you have the discipline to not swing at the ball,” OSU coach Josh Holliday said.
