Jayhawks Turn Back Ohio State, 8-7
Ohio State got a terrific game from right fielder Ben Blackwell. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Kansas, 8-7. Blackwell was the player of the game despite being on the losing side. He went 4-5 with a double and 3 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Chris Mayfield, credited with the win, is now 2-1. He allowed 3 runs on 4 hits in 2.2 innings. Kansas is in 16th place in the Ron Fraser Division with a record of 15-18.

The Jayhawks got a big at-bat from left fielder Sterling Maroney. For the game, Maroney was 1 for 5 with a double, while adding 3 RBI. In the top of the seventh, with the bases loaded, he stroked a bases-clearing double. His 5th double of the season gave Kansas a 5-3 lead.

"I'm just happy to help the team win," Maroney told the Kansas Chronicle.
