A sudden summer thunderstorm forced the second matchup between the Kansas Jayhawks and the Oklahoma Sooners in the Lawrence Super Regional to be halted in the bottom of the third inning, leaving the scoreboard frozen at 8‑1 in favor of Oklahoma.
Fans who had already purchased tickets will be able to reuse them for the first game scheduled for tomorrow, while a separate ticket will be required if a decisive third contest becomes necessary.
The game is set to resume on Monday at noon Central Time and will be broadcast live on ESPN2, giving viewers a chance to see the action pick up where it left off.
Oklahoma’s offense had already built a 7‑1 lead by the end of the second inning, highlighted by a two‑out RBI single from Jordan Bach that tied the game earlier, and a solo home run from Dayton Tockey in the third that added another run.
On the mound for Kansas, Boede Rahe was working his way through a 3‑1 count when Kyle Branch stepped up at the plate for Oklahoma, who was already ahead 8‑1.
Rescheduling Details and Ticket Information
If a third game is required, it is slated to start at approximately 4 p.m. Central Time, though the exact timing will depend on the weather and the progress of the resumed contest.
