For the final time, Keith Moreland and Greg Swindell will call a Texas Longhorns baseball series on the Longhorn Network as head coach David Pierce’s No. 25-ranked team plays its last three Big 12 regular season games starting on Thursday.
There’s plenty at stake for the surging Longhorns, from Big 12 Tournament positioning — Texas can finish as high as second to avoid a Tuesday game in Arlington — to NCAA Tournament positioning with the Horns now solidly in the field and intent on locking up a No. 2 seed.
Beyond the postseason implications, the secondary headline as the Kansas Jayhawks arrive in Austin for the series at UFCU Disch-Falk Field is how Pierce is choosing to manage his starting rotation with the possibility of only having two days off before the Big 12 Tournament begins.
