The Red Raiders saw an 11-game home winning streak snapped in the setback

By: Andrew Stern

LUBBOCK, Texas – Tech Baseball saw its 11-game home winning streak snapped on Tuesday, as the Red Raiders fell 17-3 to New Mexico at Rip Griffin Park.

In the setback, Texas Tech (29-14) was undone by three key errors all of which came in the third and fourth innings where New Mexico (20-19) scored seven times.

Tech turned to junior Hudson Parker who fired a pair of scoreless inning despite struggling with command. Parker needed 48 pitches to get through the two frames.

After the scoreless first, the Red Raiders got off to a good start when a pair of doubles from Damian Bravo and Cade McGee scored the game's first run.

The game remained 1-0 until the third when UNM used three straight hits to a 2-1 lead. After recording the first out of the inning the Lobos added one more run on a sac fly off of lefty Hudson Luce.

Luce ultimately allowed five runs (three earned) in an inning-and-a-third.

Up 3-1, UNM struck for four runs in the fifth due in large part to a pair of errors from the Red Raiders. The four-spot gave the Lobos a 7-1 lead.

Tech scored a pair of runs on back-to-back home runs from Landon Stripling and Drew Woodcox and loaded the bases with two outs, but a flyout from Kevin Bazzell stranded three on base.

The threat proved to be Tech's last, as four Lobos relievers held Tech to just three hits over the final four innings.
