In a game that apparently happened, The #24 Texas Longhorns (32-18, 13-7 in Big 12) fell to the #9 Texas Tech Red Raiders (35-13, 12-8 in Big 12) by the final score of 16-5 Saturday afternoon at Rip Griffin Park in Lubbock. Thirteen hits and twelve walks allowed from the Longhorns pitching staff pushed the Raiders to the win and a score that more closely resembles the amount of penalties in a Tech football game.
Chase Shugart got the start for the Red Raiders, and it was a game he’d be best off forgetting about moving forward. After getting through the first inning unscathed, Shugart would allow the Raiders to get on the scoreboard first, allowing a solo home run to center field.
