Rice-UT: Rice Counters with Two, Too

By Glenn Tanner - March 27, 2007

Thanks again to the Texas defense, Rice answered the Longhorns' 2-run sixth with a deuce in the seventh to make it 5-4 Texas.

With runners on first and second and one out, Jess Buenger hit a hard bouncer to first that should have been an inning-ending 3-6-3 double play. Perhaps looking for a throwing angle too early, Chance Wheeless whiffed on the grounder, and Danny Lehmann scored from second. Texas brought Joe Krebs out of the pen to face pinch hitter Diego Seastrunk. Seastrunk, a member of the 2007 All-Name Team, delivered a sac fly to make it 5-4.

Jared Gayhart takes the mound again to start the bottom of the seventh.

Edit: Whoops! Russell Moldenhauer just blasted a moonshot over the 375' mark in left to make it 6-4 Texas.
