The No. 8 Texas Longhorns (17-3, 3-1) are back in action in Saturday evening as they take on the No. 2 LSU Tigers (22-1, 4-0). They do so hoping to break a mini two-game losing streak and even the series in the process.

Most of Friday night's series opener between these two squads was a pitcher's duel. Texas struck first in the bottom of the third, but that lead was short lived as the Tigers came back with a two-run blast in the top of fourth.

From there it would be all Tigers. They plated two more runs in the top of the fifth and following a Rylan Galvan solo home run in the home half of the inning, they put a stranglehold on the game in the seventh.

After threatening multiple times to break the game open over the course of the first six innings, they did so in a big way in the seventh with a four spot. Then the bullpen sealed the deal, preventing any more Longhorns' runs and cruising to an 8-2 victory.
