Oklahoma Baptist saw a 4-0 lead shrivel up, but scored late for a 5-4 road win at Bacone Wednesday in Muskogee.

Chase Jestice got the win in relief, tossing 3.1 innings without giving up a run.

OBU took a 1-0 lead in the top of the second on a solo home run by Josh Kirkpatrick and made it 3-0 in the third when Billy Thomas belted a two-run home run.

The Bison went ahead 4-0 in the fifth when Matt Welch singled and stole second before eventually scoring on a ground out by Arin Fowble.

But Bacone got two unearned runs in the fifth and two-run home run by Derrick Roland.

With two outs in the top of the eighth, Chad Dawkins singled and Sean Iago was hit by a pitch before Welce singled to score Dawkins with what proved to be the winning run.

OBU had 13 hits in the game, including three each by Welch and Kirkpatrick, while Josh Collazo and Dawkins had two apiece.

Now 17-6 on the season, the Bison host Oklahoma Christian Friday in a single game at 3 p.m. Originally scheduled to play at OC Thursday, OBU instead will play two games at Oklahoma Christian on Saturday.
