End of 1: Missouri 1, Texas 0

A 6-4 groundout ends the inning with the bases loaded.

Bases-loaded, two-out jam and State got out of it. Big-time top of the ninth coming up at Blue Bell.

The red-hot Borba steps in with two outs and the bases loaded.

Larson strikes out looking. Two down with the bases loaded.

Bases loaded after Becerra walks, the third walk of the inning drawn by the Longhorns.

It's an in-house production and a skeleton crew. It has been students, but I don't know who's running it with the semester over. It's not anywhere near the production Texas had for home games with LHN.

Pack and Tinney move into scoring position on a wild pitch. It's scored as a double steal for the Longhorns, giving Pack 20 steals on the season.

I'm showing it's the bottom of the eighth, and the Aggies have runners in scoring position with one out.

After Pack and Tinney draw walks, A-Rod strikes out swinging for the first out of the home half.

After Witt's injury in particular, these situations are always a concern.

In theory, this game doesn't mean anything for Texas. The Longhorns are locked into a double bye in the SEC Tournament, so I'm hoping the Riojas situation is just precautionary.

M1: Missouri 1, Texas 0

The Tigers draw first blood on a two-out solo home run in the top of the first.

And then Walls walks Serna on four pitches. FWIW, Walls threw 19 pitches last night.

Ward homers into the Yeti Yard off Brody Walls. Missouri has a 1-0 lead.

Yep. Velo was down.

Riojas has been dealing with arm soreness and they've talked about getting him some rest. I hope it's just that Schloss wanted to let him face one batter on senior day before getting him out of there, but I'll pass along word whenever I hear something.

Interesting. Riojas retires the leadoff hitter on a liner to first and he's out of the game. I don't know if it's precautionary or not, but Riojas is done after facing one batter.

We're underway with a first-pitch ball from Ruger Riojas.

With a win, Texas will lock up second place in the SEC standings and will be the No. 2 seed in the SEC Tournament.

It's senior day on the Forty Acres as the Longhorns go for the series sweep of the Tigers to close out the regular season. The game is being streamed live on SEC Network Plus. Aiden Robbins, who left last night's 11-6 win early with a stomach bug, isn't in the lineup today.
