[Jeff Howe]

The Longhorns are already down to the Roadrunners, 1-0. First baseman Caden Miller led off the game with a home run off Drew Rerick.

In other news, No. 1 Tennessee trails East Tennessee State in the bottom of the seventh, 4-3.

[Jeff Howe]

A walk and a wild pitch charged to Rerick put a runner on second with no outs. Rough start for the freshman.

[Jeff Howe]

A solo home run and two walks were issued to the first three batters Rerick faces tonight.

[Jeff Howe]

Rerick's first pitch to left fielder Drew Detlefsen is a strike, so that's a good thing.

So much for the good start. Rerick hits Detlefsen to load the bases with no outs.

[Jeff Howe]

Only six of Rerick's first 15 pitches have gotten over for strikes.

Schloss and Weiner with the quick hook. Rerick is done. Kade Bing comes in with the bases loaded and no outs.

Rough outing

Must be the day for upsets.  Still early, let's see what they can do.

[Jeff Howe]

A ground ball to third and Borba gets the runner going home. Still bases loaded, but one out. 

[Jeff Howe]

Borba didn't make it to the bag, so only one out.

[Jeff Howe]

At least Bing can get out of the inning with a double play.

[Jeff Howe]

The Longhorns trade a run for an out. An RBI sacrifice fly makes it a 2-0 game in favor of UTSA.

Nice catch by Gasparino at the center field wall.

Man the wind is nasty. 

[TexasFanatic]

That inning could have been bad. Great effort to keep it 2-0. 
 

1-0 with bases loaded no outs is a tough spot for a pitcher to come in to 

[TexasFanatic]

Texas needs to score 10 plus 

[Jeff Howe]

Bing gets out of the inning by inducing a ground ball for a 6-4 putout. Bing came in with the bases loaded and no outs and held the Roadrunners to just one run (charged to Rerick).

[Jeff Howe]

M1: UTSA 2, Texas 0

[Jeff Howe]

Based on the way Keith described the wind, anything hit to left field in the air has a chance.

[Jeff Howe]

Tennessee and LSU have tied their respective games. Vols are 4-4 with East Tennessee State in the eighth; LSU is still batting in the bottom of the first in a 1-1 game with New Orleans.
