AUSTIN, TX – For the second consecutive game, late-game heroics was the tale of the tape for Texas' 4-3 win over Texas Tech.
Texas Tech jumped into the run column first Saturday afternoon when Ellie Bailey connected on a 3-2 pitch for a two-out, three-run home run to cap a three-run, three-hit top of the first. From there, the Red Raiders managed only three more hits over the game's next six innings as the Longhorns went to work at the plate.
After Mac Morgan held Texas Tech scoreless over the next four innings, Courtney Day led off the bottom of the fifth by singling a 2-1 pitch to centerfield.
