Graham Laxton is the new second baseman for the Huskies. Texas has a 2-1 lead with Jonah Williams on second and no outs.

That's a shoulder/collarbone/upper chest injury when looking at the replay.

Yep. Looked bad from up here.

Williams steals second, but we've got medical staff on the field.

Jonah gets on base to lead off the fifth. That's the third error charged to HCU today.

Edwards is about to go through the Texas lineup for the third time today. Williams, Mendoza and Galvan are due up in the bottom of the fifth.

M5: Texas 2, HCU 1

It's a 1-2-3 fifth for Saunier.

Schloss' teams take a lot of pitches.

Flores is retired at second on a grounder by Gasparino, bringing the fourth to an end.

The baseball gods make it right. Roper botches a ground ball by Flores. An E6 gets a runner on base for the Longhorns.

That play at first was close enough to review, but it's a 5-3 groundout for Rodriguez.

Arkansas trailing North Dakota State in the bottom of the first doesn't make me mad.

M4: Texas 2, HCU 1

Saunier ends the threat by getting Roper to pop out to short. HCU strands a pair after scoring one run on three hits in the top of the fourth.

Speculating on my part, but I know they want to get a longer look at Saunier. If he can get out of jams against HCU then you can't rely on him to start at some point against better competition.

Rader slaps a double down the third-base line and into the left-field corner. It's a 2-1 lead for the Longhorns, and the Huskies have RISP with two outs.

Arch Manning and Michael Taaffe are here watching from a suite.

Halligan executes the hit-and-run with two outs for the Huskies. The single to center makes it first and third with two outs.

That's a small victory worth celebrating.

I don't have the attendance for today's game, but I can guarantee you that nobody in or around this stadium is having more fun than Jonah Williams.

Leiterman, with a two-out single up the middle, keeps the inning alive for HCU.
