Borba (reached on a throwing error) is on first with two outs in the top of the ninth.

Farmer and Mendoza struck out to end the top of the ninth.

State has a runner on first with one out in the bottom of the ninth.

Duplantier gets a mound visit from Weiner for a pitch com and then strikes out Stallman. Two down.

State now has a runner in scoring position after a wild pitch.

Bryce Chance draws a walk to bring the tying run to the plate. Dylan Volantis is on the mound to try and get the final out of the game.

Two on, two down for State.

On an 0-2 pitch, Reese doubles to left-center. It's an 8-7 game. State has the tying run in scoring position and the winning run at the plate.

Reese sent a rocket to left and it was a tough play for Farmer.

Farmer is NOT GOOD. 

Sullivan grounds out on an 0-1 pitch to end the game. Texas hangs on to take the opener at Duty Noble.

🤘

FINAL: Texas 8, Mississippi State 7

That's 15 consecutive wins for the Longhorns.

Got a bit hairy, but that’s a great road win. Snag one more on the weekend and you have yourself a series win to start the SEC season. 

Duplantier got the win to move to 3-0 on the season. Volantis picked up his second save of the season.

Most of the regular season games this season are on SEC Network +. If you buy or have the ESPN+ package for about 10 bucks a month that will give you SEC Network +

I did not see it on SECN+.

Where did HR by Borba land??  It looked like it landed among 4 women in a bleacher box.  They did not flinch and I never saw the ball again.

SIAP, here’s an interesting fact, Mississippi State was opening Texas football game in SEC play, same baseball.

Phew!

That’s where I found it. The games tomorrow and/or Sunday are also scheduled to be on SEC+. That HR Borba hit almost hit one of those ladies. They never saw the ball they just flinched when it hit right behind them lol. Borba crushed that one. 

Hook'em and aggys lose

I use my YouTubeTV subscription to access SEC Network +, which is separate and different from ESPN + which is tied to my Disney Hulu ESPN bundle. This has all become so complicated.
