On a picture-perfect day at UFCU Disch-Falk Field, the Texas Longhorns took care of business, handing Purdue a 3-0 loss to secure another series victory.
David Pierce, who is continuing to weigh all of his starting pitching options, sent sophomore RHP Matt Whelan to the mound on Sunday.
Whelan delivered with a strong performance, tossing five complete innings, allowing just two hits, no base on balls, and a trio of strikeouts. He did hit two batters on a couple of pitches that got away.
After mustering just one hit in game two of Saturday’s doubleheader, the Texas offense turned to a small ball approach to open Sunday’s contest.
