Texas sweeps New Orleans with 9-3 win

The undefeated homestand continued for the Texas Longhorns on Sunday with a 9-3 win over the New Orleans Privateers at UFCU Disch-Falk Field to sweep the series.

Right-hander Lebarron Johnson Jr. moved into the weekend rotation with a mixed performance — he was difficult to hit, allowing only run over four innings, but gave up two runs in the fourth inning thanks to three walks and two wild pitches. Johnson struck out six.

Once again, the bullpen was effective for the Longhorns with left-hander David Shaw notching his first win at Texas by pitching three innings without allowing a hit.
