M7: UTSA 7, Texas 1

Say what you want, but they’ve pitched better and are much more disciplined at the plate than we are. They are playing better

Each AB looks worse than the previous, this would be comical if it was any other team.

100 percent. UTSA deserves some credit.

In three at bats tonight, Will Gasparino is 0–3 with 2 K's.

Since May 1, he is now hitting .149 with a .273 on base percentage. Gasparino has 17 strikeouts compared to 7 hits in that time. 

Gasparino has just two extra base hits in that span and just one game where he has multiple hits in a game.

Cut his butt

I expected to give up 7+ runs in this game. I didn't expect UTSA to hold us to 1 run through 7 innings.

[Class of 04]

They beat us from top to bottom, from players effort, to execution to coaching. They took us to the woodshed.

[bourbasted]

How many lead-off walks have we given up since May 1?

[Jeff Howe]

Volaintis records three groundouts in a row after hitting the leadoff man. He's done his part to keep Texas in the game.

End of 7: UTSA 7, Texas 1

Off topic, but I'm having a hard time understanding why Oklahoma is rewarded with being sent to the far easier WCWS bracket by losing to Texas. They should have to beat us twice. Instead, we are going to have to beat them another two times to win a title. I don't think Canady can carry Tech past a legit team like that. Seems like a load of BS to me.

Just saw this on X, Jonah Williams is legitimately our best batter and he's 10 years old. 🤣

BOOM! LEADOFF JACK BY SCHUESSLER!

At least one of those two allegedly boinked Sydney Sweeney.

Schuessler homers into the YETI Yard to make it a 7-2 game. The Longhorns trail by five runs, six outs away from elimination.

LOL. I was waiting to see who was going to double back and examine that post.

Rally time

HARD lineout by Borba for the first out of the inning.

[Jeff Howe]

Flores strikes out. Two down.

[Jeff Howe]

Williams is up with two on. Tommy Farmer is in the on-deck circle. He'll hit for Gasparino.

[Jeff Howe]

Williams grounds out to second to end the inning.
