***Midweek Texas vs Nevada Baseball Thread***

[joeywa]

Don't be surprised to see Alejandro Murillo on the hill for Nevada tonight.  He's their FR starter, and with the cancellation of their upcoming weekend series against New Mexico, he will likely get the call tonight as their coach will want to get him some in-game work with the weekend off.
