Fawley leads off the Ole Miss with an opposite-field double to the mesh wall in right field.

I just want to see Volantis get eligible for the win.  We chased their starter, but sometimes mistakes like that last one can start a rally

[Jeff Howe]

 

[Jeff Howe]

Fawley advances to third on a wild pitch.

And then Volantis' ninth K of the game comes when Randle gets dinged for a pitch clock violation with two strikes.

[Jeff Howe]

One out with a runner on third and Volantis is about to go through the order for a third time.

Do you score that as looking?

[Jeff Howe]

Federico goes down on strikes. That's 10 today for Volantis.

Yep

[Austalgia]

Sit down!! 

[Jeff Howe]

Utermark singles to left. Fawley scores from third and it's a 6-1 lead for the Longhorns.

[Jeff Howe]

Furniss grounds into the shift to end the inning.

One run on two hits for the Rebels. The Longhorns will bat in the fifth with a five-run lead.

M5: Texas 6, Ole Miss 1

[Burnt Orange Horn]

F U D G E ! !

I thought Volantis was going to make through 6 with a shutout!

[JMarquette]

How much money would it take to get Judd Utermark? I can’t offer much, but I will offer up my body.

[TrouperG]

DyVo making the baseball and Ole Miss bats go from Midnight to Six.

 

[Jeff Howe]

Rodriguez is on second with two outs. He reached on an error and advanced on a groundout by Becerra.

[Jeff Howe]

Pack is retired in foul territory down the left field line to end the inning.

[Jeff Howe]

End of 5: Texas 6, Ole Miss 1

[Jeff Howe]

With 82 pitches under his belt, Volantis is back out for the sixth.

[Jeff Howe]

A fielding error on Becerra doesn't come back to bite the Longhorns. Volantis gets Sirmans to ground out to second with a runner on and two outs to end the Ole Miss sixth.

[Jeff Howe]

M6: Texas 6, Ole Miss 1

[Jeff Howe]

With 97 pitches thrown through six, that should be it for Volantis.

When does a pitcher earn the win? After six innings?

He qualifies after 5 complete with the lead, of course the relievers have to do their job as well.
