FWIW, Belyeu's home run was on the first pitch he saw from Tanner Duke. Schuessler hammered the second pitch of his at-bat.

Belyeu is pumped as he crosses the plate and heads back to the dugout. Texas has a 2-0 lead.

BOOM! OPPO-TACO FOR MAX BELYEU!

Galvan chases upstairs and he was upset with himself for striking out.

Win any way

Getting A Rod out of the infield is definitely beneficial

Never would have imagined this season a year ago. Hope the season lasts a few weeks longer!

Mendoza doubles to center to get things started for the Longhorns in the top of the first.

Agree. This team has exceeded my expectations especially with the injuries.

Through four innings of Saturday’s 9-7 loss to UTSA in the Austin Regional, Texas looked the part of the No. 2 overall national seed. A two-out, two-run single through the right side of the Roadrunner infield by Jonah Williams and Casey Borba’s RBI double to left field highlighted a five-run, four-hit third inning for the SEC regular-season champions. Leading 6-1 with reliable lefty Luke Harrison toeing the rubber, the Longhorns seemed well on their way to a winner’s bracket victory when they took the field for the top of the fifth. Unfortunately, Texas (43-13) suffered a catastrophic blowout, derailing what had been a relatively smooth ride. Jim Schlossnagle’s club suddenly looked like the one that had lost seven of 12 games before going down at the hands of UTSA (46-13) for the second time in as many meetings. A fielding error charged to Adrian Rodriguez (one of two on the night for the Longhorns, who couldn’t overcome a tidal wave of defensive mishaps) and Harrison issuing free passes loaded the bases to open the frame. Jalin Flores didn’t quite catch up to a ground ball up the middle off the bat of second baseman Nathan Hodge. Hodge scored with one out after his two-run single kickstarted a four-run inning for the Roadrunners, pulling off a double steal while occupying third base with one out. Right fielder James Taussig made it a one-run game by ripping a double to right-center. Texas failed to get a run back in the home half, which ended on a Max Belyeu strikeout with the bases loaded. Max Grubbs opened the fifth by recording two outs on two pitches, but Flores misread Hodge’s blooper, one of three consecutive singles for the Roadrunners, who grabbed a 7-6 advantage. UTSA didn't trail the rest of the way. The defensive issues, combined with the Longhorns stranding 13 runners on a woeful 3-for-18 night at the plate with runners in scoring position, and ace right-hander Braylon Owens ending each of his four relief innings for the Roadrunners with one of the seven strikeouts he fired put Texas in a situation where it has to win twice on Sunday to force a winner-take-all regional championship on Monday. What the Longhorns will attempt isn’t unprecedented. As a regional host in 2005, Texas dropped a winner’s bracket game to Arkansas before beating Miami (Ohio) and dispatching the Razorbacks twice en route to the school’s sixth national championship. The Longhorns made a similar trek to Omaha in 2011, eliminating Texas State and notching two wins over Kent State to survive the regional. Nevertheless, Schlossnagle’s club must overcome Rodriguez, Williams and Ethan Mendoza continuing to battle injuries and a depleted pitching staff (Ruger Riojas will get the ball in the elimination game, but all bets are off thereafter) to advance to a second elimination game Sunday night. UTSA has every reason to be confident it will join the 81 percent of regional champions who started 2-0 since the NCAA adopted the Super Regional format in 1999. Texas, on the other hand, knows extending the season to Monday is a tall order. The Longhorns are facing an uphill battle, 27 outs away from the curtain coming down on Schlossnagle’s memorable debut. The only option Texas has is to start the climb. Whether it has enough gas in the tank to make it to the summit is another story. View full news story

The Longhorns are the designated visiting team for this game. They're in their dugout, but wearing their road grays and batting first.

The game will start on ESPNEWS. It'll switch over to ESPN whenever the Clemson-Kentucky game is done.

Winning is hard... Ok, ok. I'll stop. 🤣

Next years goals, this team isn’t done yet.

Can't play any worse then they did last night

Same but I really hope this isn’t the case lol

Just play sound baseball and whatever happens, happens.

I'm not picking on anyone, but I want to clearly state that if the 2025 college baseball season ends in the next 3-4 hours, I won't spend it worrying and being nervous about what might happen. I'm going to enjoy the hell out of the ride, however long it lasts.

I would agree, especially with how aggressive he normally is on the base paths. He and Mendoza would be a great tandem to lead games off with.

Ready to be hurt again

Inning by inning 🤘

Win any way
