Spurs Get Past Illinois for 6-5 Win
The 6-5 <Texas:team#73> win over <Illinois:team#74> was due in large part to <José Ruíz:player#5918>. The Spurs catcher went 3-3 with a double, 2 singles,  and 2 walks. With the win, Texas pushed its record to 72-72.

Had <Jorge Fernandez:player#888> not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Fernandez hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 6-5, in favor of the Spurs.

"We'll grab a cold beverage tonight and go after another win tomorrow," Fernandez said.
