Xander Mercurius Shines as Oklahoma Takes Down Georgia in the College World Series

Oklahoma center fielder Jason Walk and shortstop Jaxon Willits celebrate after a two-run home run by Willits gave the Sooners a 3-0 lead over Georgia.

Freshman right-handed pitcher Xander Mercurius gave Oklahoma baseball a performance for the ages, throwing 104 pitches and giving up three runs in 7 1/3 innings to lead the Sooners to victory.

The win keeps Oklahoma on the winning side of the College World Series bracket, with Mercurius' gem being a key factor in the team's success.
