Vanderbilt’s bats went cold Saturday at Globe Life Field, managing just two hits in an 11-1 loss to Oklahoma State.
Starter Nate Taylor kept the Commodores in it through four scoreless innings, but OSU broke through with four in the fifth — capped by a Kollin Ritchie three-run homer. Things unraveled in the sixth when reliever Jacob Faulkner gave up six runs on four hits without recording two outs.
