No. 4 Texas Rallies, Beats Texas A&M-Corpus Christi 14-7: Live Game Log

After a disappointing weekend in College Station, the No. 4 Texas Longhorns (27-7) return home for a midweek contest against the Texas A&M-Corpus Christi Islanders (16-19). Their clash with the Islanders kicks off a five-game home stand.

For the Longhorns, they head into Tuesday night's game looking to get back on track. Having just lost their first series of the year to the No. 10 Texas A&M Aggies, they are aiming to let that rough showing from the weekend carry over into this week.

In College Station, what has been a reliable pitching staff all season long put together its worst showing to date. The opener saw the bullpen collapse once again in a 9-8 loss, while Luke Harrison could not escape the first inning of what was eventually an 11-4 blowout defeat.

Can Texas get back in the win column on Tuesday?

Now, they come back to UFCU Disch-Falk Field. This season the Longhorns have been nearly unbeatable in their own stadium, sporting a strong 19-2 record at home. One of those losses, however, did come in a midweek game against the Tarleton State Texans.

As for the Islanders, they also enter their game against the Longhorns having lost their last two games. It has been an up-and-down season for them, with multiple-game winning streaks followed by multi-game losing streaks.

Texas, though, knows it cannot afford to take any midweek opponent lightly. Already this season it has two losses on Tuesdays -- the aforementioned upset by Tarleton State and another on the road against the Houston Cougars.

Follow along as we provide live at-bat by at-bat updates, with the Longhorns back at home and taking on the Islanders in this Tuesday evening midweek contest.
