STILLWATER, Okla. — Oklahoma State and Oklahoma have one of the country's longest sports rivalries, and Sunday night, during their Big Eight Conference baseball game, the Cowboys and Sooners took part in one of the longest sports brawls.
The fight, which lasted 35 minutes, took place in the sixth inning. It started after Oklahoma's Paul Oster collided with catcher Paul O'Callaghan as he was thrown out at the plate. Cowboy pitcher Carl Myer hit Oklahoma's next batter, John Douglass, in the shoulder with a curve ball and that emptied both benches.
