End of 8: Texas 8, Michigan State 1

Rodriguez grounds out to short and Robbins flies out to right to end the eighth.

After the Auburn loss in late January dropped us to 12-9, March Madness seemed unlikely. Sean Miller has our Horns trending in positive direction and I agree, a 10 seed, 9 seed or any seed, would be great/. 🐂🧡🤘🏼

Lefty Bobby Crane is on to work the eighth. He's the fourth pitcher Michigan State has used tonight.

Mendoza rips one down the line and legs out a one-out double.

M7: Texas 8, Michigan State 1

This baseball team is fun to watch.

Thomas singles, but Winter gets Williams to ground out to second to end the seventh unscathed. Two hits, but no runs with two left on for the Spartans in the seventh.

Defensively, Texas has played a much cleaner game today than at any point through the first four.

Winter allows a leadoff single. A strikeout and a 6-4 fielder's choice make it one on with two outs and the Spartans getting ready to bring the top of the order back to the plate.

Final line on Ruger Riojas:

Freshman Michael Winter is out of the bullpen to work the seventh, replacing Ruger Riojas.
