After sweeping away the Aggies to end the Big 12 regular season, the Texas baseball team is finally rolling at just the right time. After winning 10 of their last 12 the team went from possibly out of the postseason to being in the running to host a regional.

This week the team is the 5th seed in the Big 12 Baseball Championship in Oklahoma City. If the team can win a few games in a tough pool they can sew up a #2. A regional at Disch-Falk makes it a lot more likely the Horns can advance in the CWS.

Now that’s what I call Texas baseball. Team is playing much more fundamental baseball and could be back on track.

Kenn Kasparek tosses no hitter

Big Texas right hander [tag]Kenn Kasparek[/tag] tossed nine hitless innings today against the [tag]Texas State[/tag]. Kasparek struck out nine as the Longhorns beat the Bobcats 11 – 0.

Kasparek’s no-no is the 20th is Texas history, the last one was throw by Adrian Alaniz over the Oklahoma Sooners in April 2005. I saw Beau Hale’s no hitter over Sam Houston State in person on February 11, 2000. It was a special experience being there in person, so hopefully there was a full house at Disch-Falk Field to see Kasparek’s performance today.
