Baseball: No. 12 Texas vs. Santa Clara Game Thread (Saturday)

[Jeff Howe]

Stiff cross breeze blowing in from left-center.

[Jeff Howe]

Ruger Riojas is up in the bullpen.

[Jeff Howe]

Tate Medicoff just smoked one to left. The wind kept it in the yard, but it's a double that has runners in scoring position with no outs for the Broncos in the fourth.

[Jeff Howe]

That'll be it for Harrison. Riojas is coming into the game.

[Jeff Howe]

The Longhorns trade a run for an out. Conner Smith brings home a run on an RBI groundout to short, making it a 4-1 game.

[Jeff Howe]

Nice job by Riojas to field a dribber, look the runner back to third and go to first for the out. Two away with a runner on third.

[Jeff Howe]

Lambert is retired by Borba on a groundout to third and the inning is over. Nice job by Riojas to minimize the damage.

After a review, Belyeu is awarded first base on a HBP to lead off the bottom of the fourth.

Belyeu is out at third after a review. Flores is on second after executing his part of a double steal following a walk. 

[Jeff Howe]

Rodriguez walks. That's the seventh walk drawn by the Longhorns today.

[Jeff Howe]

Two away after Schuessler is retired in left.

[Jeff Howe]

Farmer gets plunked. The bases are loaded with two outs for Borba.

[Jeff Howe]

Borba clears the bases on a double to center. The wind carried the ball and the center fielder lost it. It's a 7-1 lead for the Longhorns.

[Treston Marshall]

Big knock! We needed that.

 

[Jeff Howe]

Gasparino walks and Santa Clara is making a pitching change.

[qaertyisthatdude]

Keep them bats hot, Schloss!

[Treston Marshall]

If Will is called out here, Schloss might sit him for eternity. 

[Jeff Howe]

Galvan strikes out and the inning is over.

Three runs on one hit and two left on base for the Longhorns in the fourth.

[Jeff Howe]

End of 4: Texas 7, Santa Clara 1
