Box Score

AUSTIN, Texas -- Jonathan Walsh's tie-breaking, two-run homer in the bottom of the 13th gave Texas a 10-8 victory over Baylor in Sunday's 14-inning fall scrimmage at UFCU Disch-Falk Field. This is the third consecutive year in which the two programs have played a fall scrimmage, which does not count to the teams' 2010 records.

Max Muncy's RBI single and a Texas error gave Baylor a 2-0 lead in the top of the first, but the Horns answered on Russell Moldenhauer's two-run homer in the bottom of the inning. Muncy gave the Bears another lead in the third, blasting a three-run homer to left. Again, Texas answered, scoring three runs on two hits in the bottom of the fourth to tie the game at 5-5. Tant Shepherd's two-run double provided the tying runs.

Moldenhauer went deep again in the eighth, leading off the frame with a solo shot to left that gave Texas its first lead of the day at 6-5. Chris Slater answered Moldenhauer with a one-out solo homer to left in the ninth. Cal Towey's two-run homer in the 10th pushed the Bears back ahead 8-6, but the Horns tied the game in the bottom of the inning on a Kevin Keyes RBI triple and a Moldenhauer RBI groundout.

Towey finished the day 3-for-4 with three runs, two RBI and a double. Muncy was 2-for-6 with four RBI. Baylor used eight pitchers on the day - Brooks Pinckard, Ross Speed, Crayton Bare, Kolt Browder, Trent Blank, Kevin Winter, Tom Filip and Josh Turley. Pitching decisions were not awarded.

The Bears host Temple College in their final scrimmage against outside competition this fall Tuesday at Baylor Ballpark. First pitch is scheduled for 4 p.m. CDT.

Baylor returns 18 letterwinners from a 2009 squad that finished 30-26 and made the program's 10th NCAA appearance in 12 years.
