Whether at UFCU Disch-Falk Field in Austin or 3,750 miles away in Hawaii, Texas right-hander Taylor Jungmann remains at home on a pitching mound.
Jungmann pitched his second straight complete-game shutout to open the college baseball season, as the Longhorns balnked host Hawaii 2-0 early this morning. He allowed just four hits while striking out nine. After retiring the first eight batters he faced, Jungmann later set down 10 batters in a row from the fifth inning to the eighth inning.
On Feb. 18 in a season-opening victory over visiting Maryland, Jungmann allowed five hits and struck out nine to lead Texas to an 8-0 shutout.
Against Hawaii, Texas (4-2) took a 1-0 lead in the third inning. Paul Montalbano reached on an infield single and moved to second on an error. He eventually scored on Mark Payton’s single to right field.
The Longhorns added another run in the sixth inning. Brandon Loy bounced a ground-rule double over the left-field wall before scoring on Erich Weiss’ RBI single.
Texas and Hawaii will resume their three-game series at 7 p.m. today.
