LAS VEGAS — The 15th-ranked Texas Longhorns launched three homers and used a seven-run frame to top longtime rival Texas Tech, 10-5, on Saturday afternoon at Las Vegas Ballpark.
Texas (8-1) put up a seven-spot in the second, highlighted by a pair of blasts from sophomores Ethan Mendoza and Will Gasparino.
After the Longhorns loaded the bases with one out, left fielder Tommy Farmer IV was hit by a pitch to break the early stalemate.
Two pitches later, catcher Rylan Galvan delivered a two RBI double to push the lead to 3-0.
