M4: Texas 4, Santa Clara 1

Lambert is retired by Borba on a groundout to third and the inning is over. Nice job by Riojas to minimize the damage.

Nice job by Riojas to field a dribber, look the runner back to third and go to first for the out. Two away with a runner on third.

The Longhorns trade a run for an out. Conner Smith brings home a run on an RBI groundout to short, making it a 4-1 game.

That'll be it for Harrison. Riojas is coming into the game.

Tate Medicoff just smoked one to left. The wind kept it in the yard, but it's a double that has runners in scoring position with no outs for the Broncos in the fourth.

Ruger Riojas is up in the bullpen.

Stiff cross breeze blowing in from left-center.

End of 3: Texas 4, Santa Clara 0

Gasparino is on third after a deep flyout by Galvan.

I've got my WiFi situation at Disch-Falk under control. We're in the bottom of third with Texas on top of Santa Clara, 4-0. Will Gasparino just delivered a pinch-hit RBI double to right-center, scoring Casey Borba from second base.

I’m getting a late start because CJ and I recorded a video that’s running on the YouTube channel tomorrow morning. The Longhorns go for the series win at 2 p.m.

Does the Longhorn Band's performance in College Station after the bonfire tragedy count? If not, I'll go with the recruiting week on the road that I felt nearly led to me getting divorced (thank goodness it didn't). I'm pulling out of the parking lot at Dallas Skyline late on Thursday afternoon when Gerry calls me and tells me that if I'm headed home, I might want to turn around and stay the night in Dallas because Jackson Jeffcoat was going to commit to Texas on Friday morning. By the time I got settled in at a relative's house, we confirmed that Texas was getting a commitment from Jordan Hicks on Friday afternoon, too. Five-Star Friday is one I won't forget.

FINAL: Texas 4, Santa Clara 2 That's 11 wins in a row for the Longhorns.

Grubbs gets Olson to strike out swinging to end the game.

One strike away from the win.

Conner Smith pokes one into right. It's an RBI base hit to make it a 4-2 game.
