[Jeff Howe]

After Thursday's 14-0, run-rule victory in seven innings, the Longhorns go for the series win against the Sooners tonight. The game is on the SEC Network with the first pitch set for 7 p.m.

can you run over the run-rule rules?  I thought we had a run-rule game when it got to 10-0 last night but obviously I was wrong!

It has to go 7 innings so if you score more than 10+ before the 7th then yes you can go over.

thank you, sir!

[Jeff Howe]

I don't know what they'd have to pay him, but I wish they'd let Ray Benson do the National Anthem every game!

[Jeff Howe]

The wind is blowing in pretty stiffly from the north. Home runs and extra-base hits will be earned tonight.

[Jeff Howe]

Three pitches into the game and Harrison gets Trey Gambill to line one to Doza. It's a 4-3 putout for the first out of the game.

[Jeff Howe]

Camden Johnson with a one-out ground-rule double to left. Pack gave chase, but it kept slicing and landed fair just inside the left-field line.

[Jeff Howe]

Harrison walks Brock to make it two on with one out.

[Jeff Howe]

Wow. What a throw by Tinney to nail Johnson at third base on a double steal. They'll review it, but that was a helluva play by Tinney.

[Jeff Howe]

Johnson might get lucky here by getting his hand under Becerra's glove.

[Jeff Howe]

The call is upheld. Johnson is out. The Sooners ran themselves into an out, just like the first inning last night. 

[Jeff Howe]

With two outs and a runner on second, Jaxon Willits is retired on a ground ball to first base. Borba steps on the bag and the OU threat is wiped out.

[Jeff Howe]

M1: Texas 0, OU 0

I'm sure the broadcast has mentioned it, but Johnson has been dealing with control issues lately. He just walked Tinney with one out in the bottom of the first.

[Jeff Howe]

A-Rod comes through, driving a two-out single back up the middle and into center field.

Tinney goes from first to third, making it first and third with two outs for Becerra.

[Jeff Howe]

Skip Johnson heads to the mound with Johnson behind in the count to Temo, 2-0.

[Jeff Howe]

Becerra strikes out looking to end the inning.

The Longhorns get a hit and leave two runners on base in a scoreless first.

[Jeff Howe]

End of 1: Texas 0, OU 0

[Jeff Howe]

Harrison has only gotten seven of his 17 pitches over for strikes.

He walked LaChance to open the second and just gave up a single to Blair.

[Jeff Howe]

Dickerson's sacrifice bunt moves the runners into scoring position with one out. Nice job by Harrison to field the ball off the turf and go to first for the out.

[Jeff Howe]

Branch slaps one down the left-field line just out of Becerra's reach. It's a two-run double for Branch and the Sooners have the early lead, 2-0.

whoops OU gets 2
