The Texas Exes of Corpus Christi sponsored a tailgate
party before the Longhorns-Islanders baseball game Tuesday at Whataburger
Field, featuring an appearance by the Texas mascot, BEVO XIV.

festivities.
Inside the stadium, the crowd of
7,002 tended toward the Longhorns with a sea of Burnt Orange
(bottom right) behind
the UT dugout.
On the diamond, the 12th-ranked
Longhorns scored in all but one inning to hand the Islanders their sixth
loss of the season.
This game marked the Longhorns
baseball team's first trip to South Texas.
