Texas vs Michigan State baseball: Live score updates Saturday
Texas baseball takes on Michigan State again Saturday, looking to score a series win and a sixth consecutive victory to open the 2026 campaign.
The Longhorns (5-0) hammered the Spartans 8-1 Friday night behind home runs from Casey Borba and Ethan Mendoza as well as an outstanding outing from starting pitcher Ruger Riojas.
Saturday, Texas will hand the ball to lefthander Luke Harrison, who allowed two earned runs in 5⅓ innings of work against UC Davis in his first start of the season. Michigan State (2-2) will turn to righty Carter Monke as it looks to even the series up. Monke gave up two runs in four innings of work in a Spartans win over a ranked Louisville team last time out.
Follow along with our live updates, below:
Harrison needed just 10 pitches to get through a clean second, thanks in part to a stellar play at third base by Temo Becerra. Becerra singled in the bottom half of the frame, but that was all the offense Texas mustered.
After Luke Harrison worked around a two-out double in the top of the frame, Aiden Robbins drove in Ethan Mendoza with a ground-ball single to give the Longhorns the early lead.
