This is getting hard to watch.  Decided to drink a beer for every walk T St. gives up.  I could die if they keep going like this.

Do you even trout DV back out now? Or get some BP guys an inning each so they aren’t cold

Go ahead and take some NAC if you got it.

You want to conserve arms as long as possible.

[Jeff Howe]

Rodriguez is retired in foul territory, ending the walk streak.

Borba is up with the bases loaded and two outs.

[Jeff Howe]

Borba flies out to left, ending the inning with the bases loaded.

Texas scores five runs on no hits.

Even with 12 runs, the Longhorns have left nine men on base through four.

M4: Texas 12, Tarleton State 0

[LonghornLegends]

Well, at least every team that plays Texas knows if Borba comes up to the base, they get a guaranteed out unless you throw him a perfectly down the center fastball. Just throw pitches 3 feet outside the zone and you can strike him out great inning, though outside of that.

On another note, Pretty cool of southern Miss to allow 3 other teams to use their facility this weekend

Rayner Heinrich's infield single and a walk drawn by Carson Lorch threaten to get Tarleton on the board. Volantis rallies through, recording sixth and seventh strikeouts of the night to get out of the fourth unscathed.

This is one is all Texas through four complete.

End of 4: Texas 12, Tarleton State 0

[Jeff Howe]

Robbins grounds into a 5-4-3 double play, ending the top of the fifth. That's the first inning in the regional in which Texas has failed to score.

[Hookem1012]

One K from a school record

[Jeff Howe]

Nice defensive play by Borba at third base for the second out of the inning.

[Jeff Howe]

Volantis retires the Texans in order in the fifth.

Three hits and one walk allowed with seven strikeouts through five innings (70 total pitches) for Volantis.

End of 5: Texas 12, Tarleton State 0

[Jeff Howe]

The fifth pitcher of the night used by Tarleton:

[Jeff Howe]

Tinney took a glove swipe to the face, legging out a double off the bullpen wall in right field.

He's safe and OK physically with a leadoff double in the sixth.

[Jeff Howe]

Tinney, who advanced to third on a groundout by Pack, scores on a wild pitch.

Texas has a 13-0 lead with one out in the bottom of the sixth.
