No. 1 Texas Extends Winning Streak with 11-2 Victory

The No. 1 Texas Longhorns continued their dominant season with an 11-2 victory over Prairie View A&M on Tuesday night at UFCU Disch-Falk Field. The Longhorns (38-5) have now won 10 straight games, marking their best start since 2004.

Casey Borba and Kimble Schuessler led the Texas offense, each driving in three runs. Easton Winfield had a breakout performance, hitting his first home run as a Longhorn as part of a four-hit night. Borba, Winfield, and Will Gasparino all homered in the game, contributing to Texas’s impressive 15-2 record in April.

The Longhorns’ offense was particularly potent with two outs, scoring six of their 11 runs in those situations. A six-run, six-hit fifth inning, capped off by Borba’s three-run home run, was the eighth time this season Texas has batted around.

Texas used five pitchers in the game. Kade Bing (3-0) earned the win, pitching three innings of one-run baseball on just 40 pitches. Hudson Hamilton was a standout in relief, pitching a season-long three hitless innings, striking out three and retiring nine of the ten batters he faced. Aiden Moffett, Ethan Walker, and Cody Howard each pitched one inning to close out the game for the Longhorns, who finished their 4-0 homestand with the win.

Prairie View A&M starting pitcher Isaac Herrera took the loss, allowing 7 runs (5 earned) on 7 hits in 4.1 innings.
