OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Brian Klein and Cameron Warren each had two hits to help top-seeded Texas Tech defeat West Virginia 10-3 on Saturday in the Big 12 Tournament semifinal round.
The teams will meet again later Saturday, with the winner advancing to the championship game Sunday.
The Red Raiders (39-16) broke the game open with a four-run fifth inning that included a two-run homer by co-Big 12 Player of the Year Josh Jung.

Marques Inman and Ivan Gonzalez each had two hits for No. 4 seed West Virginia (36-19).
