After looking overmatched on Friday, the No. 8 Texas Longhorns showed some resilience on Saturday at UFCU Disch-Falk Field, getting into the bullpen of the No. 2 LSU Tigers early and taking advantage in an 11-7 win that sets up a Sunday rubber match on the Forty Acres.

Texas junior catcher Rylan Galvan came up with the game’s biggest swing on a go-ahead three-run home run in the fifth inning and the Longhorns were able to slam the door shut with three insurance runs in the eighth inning and strong relief appearances from junior right-hander Max Grubbs and freshman left-hander Dylan Volantis, who recorded the final four outs for his fourth save.
