[Jeff Howe]

It's a 6-3 game. Ike Irish's second home run of the night — this one a solo blast to right-center — makes it a 6-3 game.

[Jeff Howe]

The solo shot by Irish is all for Auburn in the top of the seventh.

If I'm Schloss I don't give Irish another pitch to hit this series...

Agree! Strongly!

[Jeff Howe]

Dylan Watts is done on the mound after walking Flores and hitting Gasparino.

Griffin Graves is the new pitcher for Auburn.

[PinchPullPancake]

We need to plate a run here. 

[Jeff Howe]

Schuessler goes the other way for a single. Flores scores and the throw from right field is wild, scoring Gasparino and advancing Schuessler to second.

[Jeff Howe]

It's now an 8-3 lead for the Longhorns on Schuessler's RBI single.

Borba strikes out. Farmer comes to the plate with Schuessler on second and two outs.

[Jeff Howe]

Schuessler is thrown out trying to steal third base and the inning is over.

[Jeff Howe]

Texas scores two runs on a hit and an Auburn error to take a 5-run lead to the eighth.

End of 7: Texas 8, Auburn 3

[Jeff Howe]

Burns mows down the Tigers in the eighth. The Longhorns are three outs away from winning the series.

M8: Texas 8, Auburn 3

[Jeff Howe]

Jonah Williams is up with one out in the eighth for what should be his last at-bat tonight.

[Jeff Howe]

Jonah showed off his speed on a 6-3 groundout. He can book it, for sure.
