LUBBOCK, Texas—For the second straight weekend, the Longhorns finished out their Big 12 series by run-ruling the opposition. Texas Baseball (19-21, 9-6 Big 12) downed No. 11 Texas Tech 17-1 on Sunday afternoon to take the series two games to one in Lubbock.
The Longhorns offense got on the Red Raiders (31-12, 12-3 Big 12) early and did not relent. Freshman Tyler Rand opened the scoring for Texas in the second inning with his first career homer—a three-run blast to left—giving the Longhorns a 3-0 lead.
Texas did not stop there. Travis Jones led off the third with a hustle double and Kody Clemens followed with an RBI triple to push the lead to 4-0.
