SAN MARCOS, Texas — The slump continues for the Longhorns.
The Texas baseball team fell to 4-8 in April after dropping a 7-6 decision at Texas State.
It appeared the Longhorns flipped their fortunes in the seventh inning when third baseman Ryan Reynolds smashed a grand slam, giving Texas the lead, 6-3.
Even the Longhorns' defense backed the lead in the eighth inning when Duke Ellis robbed the Bobcats of a base hit in center field.
But then the ninth inning happened. The bullpen failures continued.
Texas State rallied for four runs in their final at-bat, a walk-off, 7-6 win.
Texas fall to 24-19 as they face an urgent situation beginning with their Big 12 series against West Virginia at Disch-Falk Field on Friday.
