With Texas baseball, it's never over

Trying to listen to the bottom of the ninth inning of the Texas-Arizona State game on a station out of Omaha goes down as one of the most agonizing experiences ever.

But I was able to hear through the static the back-to-back home runs that Cameron Rupp and Connor Rowe hit to lift Texas to an improbable victory.

This is a typical Augie Garrido team. His teams bunt and bunt and bunt 'til they actually have to swing the bats, as Alan Trubow of the Austin American-Statesman tells us.

Credit ex-Navarro coach and now UT pitching coach Skip Johnson for having a young pitching staff ready to go against a very Good Sun Devils team.
