Texas to host Houston Baptist on Tuesday

The Texas Longhorns (31-16) will enter Tuesday night’s midweek matchup against the Houston Baptist Huskies (18-27) at UFCU Disch-Falk Field with a pitching staff that was humbled in a conference series sweep by the No. 3 Oklahoma State Cowboys over the weekend.

Texas pitchers allowed 32 runs, served up nine home runs, and gave up 22 free passes (14 walks; eight hit batters) in the three-game series against the visiting Cowboys. As a result, the Longhorns are unranked after starting the season with an unanimous No. 1 ranking.
