End of 7: Texas 15, Tarleton State 2

Hamilton gets Tatom to ground out to second to end the inning. We're through seven with the Longhorns up by 13 runs.

Too bad that run was charged to Volantis and we lost the shoutout. Good performance by him.

Hamilton threw 22 pitches yesterday.

Whatever it takes to shut the door tomorrow night.

One of those runs was charged to Volantis, who now has a 1.94 ERA on the season.

Ideally for me tomorrow, I’d like to see the combo of Ruger, Burns, Leffew, Crossland, and Cozart close it out.

Hamilton allows a single and a double. The shutout is over. It's a 15-2 lead for the Longhorns.

After 6.1 innings and 91 pitches, Volantis exits with a runner on first and one out. Hudson Hamilton is the first man out of the bullpen tonight for the Longhorns.

Tarleton will have seen Volantis and UCSB has a season's worth of information on him, so the scouting component isn't a big deal. Personally, I think this is more about Schloss and Weiner hedging against Ruger's shoulder not being up to snuff tomorrow and needing to use more bullpen arms if Riojas can't go deep.

Sure, 84 ‘low‑stress’ pitches is fine - I’m not saying the guy is out there suffering. I just didn’t expect them to let him chew through that many in a 13–0 game. At some point it’s less about saving the bullpen and more about ‘why are we giving the entire regional a full scouting report on him tonight.’ But hey, if he’s truly shelved until Monday, I guess they’re comfortable letting him rack up the cardio.

I thought they might pull him after 90 pitches if he has to go on short rest next week in the opener

Tarleton hasn't had a runner reach third base against Volantis tonight.

M7: Texas 15, Tarleton State 0

The inning ends on a groundout back to the mound. Volantis is coming back out for the bottom of the seventh.

The Texas single-game school record is 24, FWIW.

It's first and third with two outs for Becerra after Gumbo legs one out, avoiding an inning-ending double play.

What is the record for walks given up in a regional? Dang

Nobody's up in the Texas bullpen right now.

And Volantis has thrown 84 relatively low-stress pitches.
