Flores, Longhorns baseball walk off Kansas again
AUSTIN (KXAN) - The series opener between Texas and Kansas baseball did not disappoint. The Longhorns gave up a late lead, just to come back and win via the walk off. Friday's game two also brought some burnt orange magic.
No. 25 Texas clinched a series win over Kansas with a 3-2 win. Thursday's hero was Jalin Flores who hit a walk off double. Flores came up clutch again Friday with a walk off sac fly.
The Longhorns entered the ninth inning down 2-1 before Jared Thomas tied it up with an RBI single to score Will Gasparino.
On that game-tying single, Jayden Duplaniter advanced to third from first. The ensuing batter Flores knocked him home with a line-drive sac fly to center.
Texas and Kansas will wrap up the series Saturday at 2:30 p.m. from UFCU Disch-Falk Field.
