Longhorns have grand home opener, top San Diego 7-3 in front of record crowd
Flores' big swing came in the sixth inning and punctuated a 5-run frame that turned a 3-1 Toreros lead into a 6-3 Texas advantage. Flores pummeled a 1-2 pitch that had to cut through wins from an oncoming cold front, and it landed in the brand-new Yeti Yard seating area beyond left field, which led to various beverages being tossed in the air as a celebration.
