GAME LOG: Texas State Wins 6-4, Texas Splits the Midweek Series

It wasn't a pretty win for Texas on Tuesday, but the Longhorns managed to get out of San Marcos with a 9-8 win over Texas State. A second straight rough outing from the pitching staff almost cost Texas but the offense was able to carry the load, producing clutch hits in key situations in the win.

Now the two teams travel to Austin to finish the midweek home and home series, where the No. 1 Longhorns will look to complete the sweep ahead of their weekend series against South Carolina.
