Texas Tech baseball found a unique way to beat the Texas Longhorns in the bottom of the 10th inning when the Red Raiders stole home.
One of the best baseball plays you’ll witness this season came from the Texas Tech Red Raiders.
In Lubbock, Texas Tech baseball hosted the Texas Longhorns, and the Red Raiders pulled off an improbable upset over the second-ranked Longhorns. The Red Raiders upset the Longhorns in the bottom of the 10th inning, capping off a beautiful back-and-forth fight thanks to excellent base running and a perfectly executed stolen base.
It’s tough to put into words just how amazing this is. This is a play that you must see.
Texas outhit Texas Tech 11-3, but the Red Raiders won because of shrewd baserunning and the ability to read when the pitcher wasn’t paying attention. This should make the people of west Texas very happy.

The play was a hit with Red Raiders all throughout the country. Patrick Mahomes, a Texas Tech legend and former baseball star, was among many who couldn’t believe their eyes.
Mahomes appears to do more to promote the Red Raiders than anyone else.Mahomes is one of the first to congratulate and celebrate anything Texas Tech is able to accomplish, and he is one of the first to do it after virtually every huge win.
