These Upstate bats have gotten to Texas pitchers more than I have seen so far this season. They had 14 hits yesterday and are hitting the ball hard again today. 

Yeah this is not a bad team. They were a 40 win team last season.

[AZ Longhorn]

😂 Upstate don't care about their pitcher's arm

[Jeff Howe]

Pitching change for Upstate with Texas leading 6-3 in the bottom of the sixth.

An RBI double by Pack scored Rodriguez, who doubled to lead off the inning, from third. The Longhorns have runners on the corners with one out.

Side note: if the SC/Texas game is anything close to the Duke/Louisville game we in for a good one.

[Jeff Howe]

Larson draws a walk to load the bases with one out for Livingston.

[Jeff Howe]

BOOM! GRAND SLAM FOR LIVINGSTON!

It's cooler and not as windy on my side of town. No real chance of ran so I'm hoping for a couple of dingers. The weather is just right for them. 

Just gonna sit this right here🤘🏿

[Jeff Howe]

That’s a heck of a way to break through.

Livingston’s grand slam to right field busts the game open, making it a 10-3 lead for the Longhorns.

Is Jonah injured again?

[Jeff Howe]

BOOM!

A two-run shot by Livingston ends a 13-3, run-rule win in the eighth inning.

[LonghornLegends]

Livingston with the dagger another bomb to end the game!

[Jeff Howe]

FINAL (8): Texas 13, Upstate 3

[JMarquette]

If this is the real Livingston, this lineup is DANGEROUS.

[AZ Longhorn]

So happy for Josh. It's hard to get opportunities on this team, given Temo crushing and A Rod not missing time (3B platoon possibility), Schloss committing to one guy at first (1B platoon possibility), and fellow lefties Larson and Jonah starting hotter (LH DH competition). But he's a guy who can raise our season-long ceiling, and I'm so happy he paid off Jim's investment this weekend and broke through!
