TCU Baseball had their opportunities Friday, and will likely be kicking themselves for all the chances that went by the wayside in Friday night’s series opening loss to Texas. TCU lost for the first time in a series opener despite the fact that Lupton was basically back to its old self, well above the 50% capacity that had been the benchmark to this point in the season.
Both teams scored early, as neither Russell Smith or Ty Madden were especially sharp in the opening frame. The Horns got to Smith via a pair of extra base hits while the Frogs benefited from a pair of UT errors — though neither unit produced a crooked letter on the scoreboard.
