A quiet offensive evening for the Texas Longhorns finally found some life in the bottom of the eighth inning when the Longhorns cranked out all three of their extra-base hits, including a go-ahead three-run home run by left fielder Porter Brown that vaulted Texas to a 4-2 victory over the Indiana Hoosiers on Friday evening.
It was the only hit with a runner in scoring position in 10 chances for Texas, which also went 2-of-14 with runners on base and failed to secure a two-out base hit. Brown was the standout, however, with three of the eight hits for the Horns, which also received two from center fielder Eric Kennedy at the top of the order.
