The injury bug has struck the No. 4 Texas Longhorns once again, hampering the infield for the second time this season.  While diving for a ground ball in the first inning on Friday, second baseman Ethan Mendoza injured his right shoulder and was unable to get the throw off to Casey Borba at first base to get the routine out.  Mendoza was on his stomach for a brief moment, experiencing pain — he would eventually get up and get off some practice throws. In the end, Mendoza’s day would be cut short after he was still experiencing discomfort.  While it was not a huge defensive loss, the Longhorns fell to the Tennessee Volunteers, 5-1 , Friday night at Lindsey Nelson Stadium in Knoxville.  More Shuffling In The Infield Texas junior infielder Casey Borba trots towards home plate after firing a home run in the fifth inning against the Mississippi State Bulldogs on May 2, 2026, at UFCU Disch-Falk Field in Austin, Texas.…
