Longhorns Ride Five Home Runs to 17-11 Win Over Cardinals: Live Game Log

The Longhorns look to extend their winning streak to 11 games against the Cardinals on Tuesday.

The Texas Longhorns (14-7) are back in action on Tuesday night as they are set to host the Incarnate Word Cardinals (10-10) in a midweek matchup. 

This is the 11th straight home game for the Longhorns, who find themselves in the middle of a lengthy 14-game home stand through the month of March - a home stand that was sorely needed. 

While on the home stand the Longhorns have yet to lose once, reeling off an impressive 10-game win streak. Their most recent set of wins came in a three-game weekend sweep of the New Orleans Privateers, a series that Texas absolutely dominated. 

Now, the Longhorns will turn their attention to a Cardinals team that enters Tuesday night having lost three straight. Despite that, though, the Longhorns can't take them lightly if they want to extend their winning streak to 11 games. 

Stay tuned as we provide live updates as the Longhorns take on the Cardinals from Disch-Falk Field. 

Live updates will be available after first pitch.
