Live Updates From Oklahoma's Fall Exhibition With Oklahoma Christian

NORMAN — Follow along for Ryan Chapman’s observations throughout Oklahoma’s fall exhibition with Oklahoma Christian University. Just keep refreshing this page for live updates from Love’s Field.

Final

Guachino added a trio of strikeouts to bring her total up to five as Oklahoma closed out the 35-0 win.

End 9

Kai Minor got a chance with the bases loaded and two outs, but she grounded out.

Guachino is coming back out to close the game out with OU up 35-0.

Bottom 9

The Sooners have added four here in the ninth thanks to a two-RBI single by Abby Dayton and a two-run show by Kendall Wells, her second of the night.

Middle 9

Miali Guachino started the ninth with back-to-back strikeouts. She’s been OU’s best strikeout pitcher early in the fall. Then got the third out of the inning on a slow roller back to the circle.

End 8

The Sooners go down in order for only the third time tonight.

Middle 8

Deal sat the side down in order again, adding another strikeout in the process. She’s up to three on the night, and Deal will likely hand the ball to Miali Guachino for the final two innings of the night.

End 7

OU stranded one, which came from an Ella Parker walk.

Kai Minor got another at-bat and made strong contact, but she lined out to left for the second out of the inning.

Back over to Deal.

Middle 7

Deal works through an efficient top of the seventh.

She struck out two, including a sweet three-pitch strikeout to end the inning. Got OCU looking on the outside corner. Painted it like Bob Ross.

End 6

The Sooners roll into three groundouts to end the sixth.

Kierston Deal is now entering the circle.

Bottom 6

McEnroe-Marinas needed a double to hit for the cycle tonight.

Instead, she hit a two-run home run to cash in on Chaney Helton’s leadoff walk. She’s up to six RBIs tonight.

Middle 6

Zache made quick work in that frame. She added a third strikeout, and went three up, three down.

End 5

Sooners take their four-touchdown lead into the sixth.

Zache is returning to the circle for her second inning (all the pitchers appear as if they’ll get two, much like the first Battle Series contest).

Bottom 5

Parker adds her fourth, fifth and sixth RBIs of the night with a three-run shot to the juniper bushes in center field, then Gabbie Garcia batted around with a solo shot to extend the lead to 28-0.

Bottom 5

Milloy adds another with an RBI single. OU stringing together hits now, up 24-0.

Milloy is 2-for-2 with a sacrifice fly and a walk, and she’s got five RBIs.

Bottom 5

Nelly McEnroe-Marinas can now battle Wells for the longest home run shot tonight.

McEnroe-Marinas just belted a three-run blast that cleared the short bleachers in left-center field. An OU fan tried to make a leaping grab, but the ball sailed over his outstretched hand and bounced to the fence at the back of the concourse.

Sooners on top 23-0. McEnroe-Marinas is now 3-for-3 with four RBIs and a hit by pitch.

Middle 5

Zache just had a really nice “dig deep” moment.

A double and two walks saw her load the bases with two outs, but Zache battled through a lengthy at-bat and ended the frame with a strikeout courtesy of a well-placed changeup. The stuff Patty Gasso wants to see from her true freshman.

End 4

The total sits a 19-0. Gabbie Garcia doubled off the wall with Parker on first, but the OU junior was again thrown out by a step at home. Good recovery on the relay by OCU, but not sure Gasso would have sent Parker in an SEC contest there.

Berkley Zache is taking over in the circle to start the fifth.

Bottom 4

Don’t see this every day: back-to-back-to-back triples by Nelly, Agbayani and Dayton.

Then Tia Milloy belts a two-run homer.

It is 19-0 with one out.

Bottom 4

Chaney Helton pinch-hit for Kai Minor and made an immediate impact.

She looped a homer to right field, putting OU up 15-0 in the process.

Just one down here in the fourth.

Bottom 4

Back-to-back innings with a leadoff blast for OU.

This one was Kasidi Pickering’s, and while it didn’t go as far as the shot by Wells, it was also a no-doubter.

Middle 4

Audrey Lowry allowed a one-out single, but she retired the next two batters to keep OCU off the board.

End 3

Garcia plated two with a double, but a nice throw to the plate gunned Parker at the plate for the second out of the inning.

Wells then sent one to the warning track, but that was all for that. OU up 13-0 headed to the fourth.

Bottom 3

After the homer by Wells, the Sooners brought in two runs off bases-loaded walks, a run from a hit batter and then a pair of RBIs from Tia Milloy (sacrifice fly) and Lexi McDaniel (RBI-single). The bases are juiced for Gabbie Garcia with OU up 11-0 and only one out.

Bottom 3

Kendall Wells wasted no time adding to the OU advantage.

She obliterated the first pitch she saw into the loge boxes in dead center. Would have loved to see the exit velocity on that because everyone at Love’s Field knew it was out of the stadium off the bat.

Middle 3

Audrey Lowry entered the circle for Berzon.

Berzon finished six up, six down with no strikeouts.

Lowry surrendered a leadoff walk, but then got a fielder’s choice and a double play on a couple of ground balls to quickly end the top of the third.

End 2

Agbayani brought a run home and everyone reached safely thanks to a fielding error at second.

Tia Milloy then drew a two-out, bases-loaded walk to bring up Ella Parker, who cleared the bases with a three-RBI double.

Gabbie Garcia ended the frame by popping up to foul territory, but the Sooners lead 5-0 headed into the third.

Bottom 2

The Sooners have their first real chance to strike here.

Barker singled, then OU loaded the bases with a Kai Minor walk followed by Nelly McEnroe-Marinas wearing a pitch.

Ailana Agbayani up with the bases loaded and one out.

Middle 2

The top of the second belonged to Gabbie Garcia.

She caught a pair of soft popups, then Sydney Barker fielded and recorded the third out.

No hard contact off Berzon yet, and no balls have left the infield.

End 1

The Sooners also went three-up, three down in the first.

Both Ella Parker and Gabbie Garcia grounded out to second, then Kendall Wells rocketed a hard-hit grounder to short, but OCU was able to avoid a bobble in the glove and throw out the freshman catcher.

Middle 1

Sydney Berzon made quick work of the Oklahoma Christian lineup in the first.

She fed a pair of ground balls to the infield, and then the third out came on a short popup to Sydney Barker at first.

6:25 p.m.

We’re rolling through the pre-game introductions right now.

It appears that LSU transfer Sydney Berzon is going to get the ball first to start this thing in the circle for the Sooners.

We’ll also see Ella Parker playing a bit in left field and Kasidi Pickering will DP. A little switch for the pair of star juniors.

6:10 p.m.

We’re slated for 10 innings of action tonight between Oklahoma and OCU.

The Sooners will be back in action on Friday night at Love’s Field in the second Battle Series scrimmage of the 2025 fall slate.
