Tinney flies out to right, but it's deep enough to get Mendoza to third.
With one out, Texas has the first run of the game 90 feet away from home plate.
To your point, Leffew had been good in his three appearances since the Auburn loss until tonight. The same goes for Crossland's five appearances since the Ole Miss loss.
Texas has played five SEC series. The Longhorns are 1-4 in openers, with a run-rule win over OU and losses to Ole Miss, Auburn, South Carolina and the Aggies.
Three of the four losses have been one-run losses.
Seven walks, two wild pitches, one hit batter, at least one passed ball, an overturned CS and an error that led to what turned out to be the winning run scoring. And that's not counting Gumbo's misplayed ball in left field and other chances the Longhorns had to get outs that they let get away.
It's tough to win anywhere, let alone on the road in the SEC, when you make that many mistakes.
