The No. 2 Texas Longhorns are limping into Wednesday’s final game of a stretch featuring 10 of 11 contests away from UFCU Disch-Falk Field after dropping Tuesday’s contest 8-4 against the College of Charleston Cougars at College of Charleston Baseball Stadium at Patriots Point.
The Longhorns have now lost three straight on their five-game road trip to South Carolina and five of the last seven overall as the bats have failed to generate enough run support for a pitching staff that suddenly looks extremely mortal without right-hander Tanner Witt, the Sunday starter for the first two games who is now out for the season with an elbow injury.
