Tim Tadlock’s Texas Tech baseball team is proving that it is one of the most well-rounded squads in the nation. On Friday night, the Red Raiders were forced to rely on their pitching staff to carry them to a 2-1 win over the No. 21 Texas Longhorns.
For most of the season, Tech’s offense has been lethal. Entering the Big 12 opener, the Red Raiders had averaged just under seven runs per game.
But an old-fashioned pitchers’ duel broke out at Disch-Faulk Field and Texas Tech was up to the task.
Starter Davis Martin turned in arguably his best outing of the season, especially given the importance of the game.
