The No. 23 Texas Longhorns spoiled a strong sixth-inning outing by right-hander Lebarron Johnson Jr. on Friday at UFCU Disch-Falk Field in a 9-3 loss to the Washington Huskies when the bullpen gave up six runs in the seventh inning and another two runs in the ninth.
The 14 hits by the Huskies set a season high while the nine runs scored tied for the second most this season by Washington, which entered the game averaging 4.4 runs per game. First baseman Jeter Ybarra led the way for head coach Jason Kelly’s team by setting a career high with five hits, including three doubles, and tying his career high with four RBI.
