The Comeback
The Jayhawks entered the fifth inning down 3‑1, but a swing by Tyson LeBlanc turned the tide.
LeBlanc’s two‑run blast knotted the game at three, shifting momentum in Kansas’s favor.
Key Moments
A bases‑loaded walk in the seventh pushed Kansas ahead, and the eighth inning saw an insurance run followed by a solo homer from Augusto Mungarrieta, extending the lead to 5‑3.
What’s Next
A steady ninth‑inning effort preserved the lead, sealing a 5‑3 victory and keeping the team alive for a potential super regional berth.
The Jayhawks will now meet the winner of tomorrow’s elimination game between Arkansas and Northeastern at 5 p.m., a matchup that could write a new chapter in the program’s postseason history.
