Associated Press
BALTIMORE (AP) — Baltimore's Colton Cowser singled to lead off the eighth inning Wednesday night, breaking up Texas Rangers right-hander Jacob deGrom's no-hit bid.
The 37-year-old deGrom had a perfect game going through six innings before walking designated hitter Sam Haggerty and left fielder Alejandro Osuna in the seventh and allowing Cowser's hard hit grounder to right field at the start of the eighth inning.
DeGrom struck out seven. The two-time Cy Young Award winner threw threw 59 strikes and 89 pitches overall before being lifted after allowing his first hit. He has a 7-2 record.
Texas leads 7-0.
The Orioles went hitless for six innings on Tuesday night against Texas left-hander Jacob Latz before singling in the seventh. Baltimore also went hitless for seven innings against Yankees starter Clarke Schmidt on Saturday before Gary Sanchez finally singled in the eighth off reliever JT Brubaker.
Texas scored once in the second inning, twice in the fourth, three times in the third and added a run in the sixth. The Rangers scored four earned runs off Baltimore starter Brandon Young and three earned runs off reliever Scott Blewett.

Texas With Some Catching Up to Do in SEC Recruiting Rankings
Texas With Some Catching Up to Do in SEC Recruiting Rankings originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Texas Longhorns have played one season in the SEC, but they have already made their mark, appearing in the conference championship and the College Football Playoff. Advertisement While the results are happening on the field, recruiting could use some work. On3 Sports updated their SEC team recruiting rankings, and it looks like the Longhorns have some work to do. The updated rankings showed Texas at No. 6 among the SEC. Texas ended the regular season at 11-1, with its only loss coming at the hands of the Georgia Bulldogs, 30-15. The Longhorns reached the SEC Championship Game and lost in overtime to Georgia 22-19.

Martinez/American-Statesman / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Texas' 2026 class is not lacking talent, with one five-star commit, six four-star commits and five three-star commits. The class is highlighted by five-star quarterback Dia Bell, four-star athlete Jermaine Bishop Jr., four-star defensive lineman Dylan Berymon and four-star receiver Chris Stewart. Advertisement One thing that can comfort Texas fans is knowing that Sarkisian is a talented recruiter. Dating back to 2022, the Longhorns have had a top-10 recruiting class on On3 Sports. The only time that Texas has not done so was Sarkisian's first year with the program in 2021, when the Longhorns finished No. 13 overall in that cycle. One of the recent additions to Sarkisian's 2026 class was four-star defensive lineman Corey Wells. The Longhorns also received some great news regarding five-star offensive tackle Felix Ojo. Ojo announced that he was canceling his official visit with the Oklahoma Sooners and that a decision would be coming soon.

Texas Labeled Most 'Overvalued Team' in College Football
Texas Labeled Most 'Overvalued Team' in College Football originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Texas Longhorns are going to look much different this year after the losses of quarterback Quinn Ewers, offensive tackle Kelvin Banks Jr., receiver Matthew Golden, and others to the NFL. Advertisement Texas' regular-season win total for 2025 is set at 10.5, via ESPN BET. However, not everyone is as sure that the Longhorns will win as many games. ESPN's Joe Fortenbaugh went on a recent edition of "Get Up" and urged people to take the under, calling Texas the most "overvalued team" in college football. Arch Manning is expected to take over for Ewers after backing up the star quarterback for the last two seasons.

"The win total's 10.5. You're only playing 12 games. Conference championships. Playoffs. That stuff doesn't count. I bet the under. All we need are two losses." Advertisement Head coach Steve Sarkisian has led the Longhorns to consecutive College Football Playoff appearances in the last two seasons. The last time Texas finished with under 10 wins in the Sarkisian era was 2022, when it went 8-5. On top of a trip to the playoff, the Longhorns also reached the SEC Championship Game in their first season in the conference. Texas lost 22-19 in overtime to the Georgia Bulldogs and claimed the No. 5 seed in the CFP. Fortenbaugh is not the only one to doubt Texas recently. The Longhorns' 2026 class was ranked sixth in the SEC by On3 Sports. However, it has not been all bad. Texas gained some ground with five-star offensive tackle Felix Ojo after he canceled his official visit with the Oklahoma Sooners.
