STILLWATER, Okla. -- So much went right for Oklahoma State running back Justice Hill against Baylor.And yet, so much went wrong.The true freshman ran for 122 yards and a touchdown in his first career start last Saturday and was named Big 12 Newcomer of the Week. It was the most yards rushing for an Oklahoma State freshman since 2009.His fumbles were costly, especially his second one. With Baylor holding onto a 28-24 lead in the fourth quarter, he lost the ball at the Baylor 2-yard line, and the Bears took over with 9:12 to play. Baylor went on to win 35-24.Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy said Hills talent and approach to the game have earned him another chance, starting with Saturdays game against No. 22 Texas.He made enough plays for us to justify letting him carry the ball, Gundy said. If youre asking me because he fumbled, what are we going to do, were going to give him the ball and let him run again.That doesnt mean Hill escaped criticism.Im a big Justice Hill fan, but he has to take care of the football, Gundy said. They dont stop and say, `Youre a true freshman, were going to give you that one back. They all count.On his first fumble, Hill lost the ball near midfield in the second quarter, and Baylor recovered with the score tied at 14.I understand hes a true freshman, and we want him carrying the ball, Gundy said. The first fumble he had, I have to give credit to Baylors defender because he was in there deep and reached hard and pulled and was very good in whatever theyve coached him to do. The second time, hes fighting for extra yards. Those are learning experiences for him.Hill, at just 171 pounds, has emerged from a crowded group as the main back. Rennie Childs has six touchdowns this season and is second on the team in carries and yards. Jeff Carr, Chris Carson and Barry J. Sanders all get carries, too.Hill got 20 carries against Baylor after getting 24 the first three games combined. He showed his burst when he got to the corner on a 38-yard run the play before his fourth-quarter fumble. Hes quick and can absorb contact, despite his relatively small frame.Texas allows 150.7 yards rushing per game, fourth in the Big 12, and 3.6 yards per carry. The Longhorns have just one fumble recovery this season.Gundy doesnt see the fumbles as an issue going forward, and he doesnt believe they will shake Hills confidence.Hes an intelligent young man, Gundy said. He comes from a good home. Hes been raised the right way, so constructive criticism isnt something hes going to shy away from.---Follow Cliff Brunt on Twitter (at)CliffBruntAPCheap Custom Rays Jersey .

They have 27 runs, are hitting .429 and are 14-for-27 with runners in scoring position in this series.The productivity continued Saturday with a 13-5 win when rookie Gary Sanchez reached 11 home runs faster than any player. Sanchez did it in his 23rd game when he connected off Dylan Bundy in the fourth inning.Its unbelievable, Yankees shortstop Starlin Castro said. I think that he is impressive. Its fun to watch. Every time he goes to the plate, we feel like something is going to happen in a good way and its really fun to watch.Castro also homered and had four hits, while every starter had a hit and five had multiple hit games.Because of the energized offense featuring Sanchez in the middle of the lineup, the Yankees are 2 1/2 games out of the second wild card spot.They were 5 1/2 games out on Aug. 1 after completing a sell-off that netted 11 prospects and led many to believe the season was over.I told you we were here to win games and I really liked some of the things we did bringing up some of the young kids, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.I thought they could help us. I know that obviously we traded our leading RBI and home run guy and two really good relievers. But I still felt there was enough talent in that room to win and we need to continue to do it.While the Yankees seem to be gaining momentum with each win, things seem to be slipping away from the Orioles, especially on the mound.After allowing 18 hits in consecutive games for the first time since August 1993 and 13 runs in consecutive games for the first time since May 2011, the Orioles have a 4.52 ERA, which an offense with 202 home runs cant compensate for.Baltimore has lost eight of its last 12 games since Aug. 15, when it last held any share of first place. The Orioles have allowed eight runs in five of their last nine games and have an 8.23 ERA since Aug. 17.Whats going on right now doesnt surprise anybody, Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said. Theyre all challenging times and our guys always respond well.The Orioles had the offense by hitting five home runs.ddddddddddddChris Davis homered twice and Mark Trumbo added his 39th, but it was hardly enough since Baltimore continued struggling on the mound.Its just not going for us, Baltimore third baseman Manny Machado said. Nothing really, really to it. Just not getting any hits, clean hits. Just out-hitting us. Theyre doing what they need to be doing, and were not. Nothings falling for us. No excuses.The Orioles also wont make any excuses if they have to attempt to avoid a sweep without Adam Jones. Jones grounded out to third to start Fridays game and was pulled with a left hamstring strain in the second inning.Jones did not start Saturday and is unlikely to play Sunday.The Yankees began this series by starting two rookies, Luis Cessa and Chad Green. Another young pitcher was originally scheduled to go, but the Yankees announced CC Sabathia would start Sunday and Michael Pineda would go Monday in Kansas City.Sabathias numbers against Baltimore might have something to do with it and the fact that he is coming off a solid seven-inning performance in Seattle when he allowed a run and three hits Monday.He pitched 12 scoreless innings in Baltimore May 4 and June 5, and Sabathia allowed four runs and seven hits in 6 2/3 innings July 21 while opposing Chris Tillman.Sabathia is 19-8 with a 3.33 ERA in 36 career starts against Baltimore. With the Yankees, he is 14-8 with a 3.67 ERA in 27 starts and at Yankee Stadium, he is 6-2 with a 3.58 ERA in nine starts.Sabathia also has done well against Baltimores top hitters. Jones is 19-for-75 (.253), Machado is 11-for-43 (.256), Davis is 8-for-39 (.205), Matt Wieters is 7-for-43 (.163) and Trumbo is 6-for-25 (.240).This season those players are a combined 3-for-33 against Sabathia.After the sub-par results from Yovani Gallardo and Dylan Bundy, Kevin Gausman starts for the Orioles.Gausman is 0-9 with a 5.32 ERA in 13 outings away from Baltimore but one of the right-handers best road starts was a 2-1 loss in New York when he allowed two runs and six hits in 6 2/3 innings.In three starts against the Yankees, the Orioles have scored six runs for him, and Gausman has allowed three runs in 20 2/3 innings.Gausmans numbers against the Yankees reflect his recent performance as he is 3-2 with a 3.03 ERA in his last five starts. Gausman last pitched during Tuesdays 8-1 win against Washington and allowed six hits in six scoreless innings. ' ' '
