OLE MISS CLAIMS GAME 1 🔥 OleMissBSB is one win away from its first national title in program history. 📚max_olson
Ole Miss rode a strong night of pitching and back-to-back-to-back home runs late to a 10-3 win over Oklahoma in the opening game of the Men’s College World Series finals at Charles Schwab Field, putting the Rebels one win away from their first baseball national championship in school history.
In his first start in three months, Ole Miss pitcher Jack Dougherty was perfect through five innings and allowed three hits and two runs with six strikeouts. Reliever Mason Nichols struck out five more in two innings of work to help halt the Sooners after they’d won three consecutive CWS games. The Rebels flexed their power in the top of the eighth inning with consecutive home runs by TJ McCants, Calvin Harris and Justin Bench off reliever Chazz Martinez, turning a tense 4-2 battle into a rout. They were the first back-to-back-to-back homers in a CWS game since LSU did so in 1998.
Oklahoma got a good outing from starting pitcher Jake Bennett, who struck out 10 and gave up four runs in 6 1/3 innings, but its bullpen surrendered six runs on nine hits. Game 2 of the best-of-tree championship series is 3 p.m. ET Sunday.Backstory
