Longhorns sweep series, pummel injury-riddled Baylor Baseball

By Michael Haag | Sports Writer

Injuries paired with inexperience proved to be too much for Baylor baseball, as they were decimated by No. 10 University of Texas all weekend at UFCU Disch-Falk Field in Austin. Beaten and banged up, the Bears were never able to hang with the high-powered Longhorns, proven by a 20-1 loss Friday evening and a pair of 13-4 losses Saturday and Sunday afternoon.

Baylor (20-20, 4-11 Big 12) didn’t get full outings from sophomore right-handed pitcher Will Rigney on Friday or fifth-year senior lefty Tyler Thomas on Sunday due to discomfort, and UT (30-13, 9-6 Big 12) made sure to cash in.
