No. 7 TCU loses to unranked Houston Baptist 7-4 Saturday
The No. 7 TCU baseball team exited the field of Lupton Stadium with bowed heads and slumped shoulders after losing to unranked Houston Baptist University, 7-4, on Saturday.
Junior short stop Taylor Featherston, who went 2-for-3 at the plate, said the game could have ended differently but the team didn't execute plays that could have changed the game.
"It's never good to lose, but they just played a better baseball game then we did," Featherston said. "They did the things they had to when it counted."

"Everyone's kind of excited about this win, but we can't forget what happened yesterday," Pena said. "That"s going to be in the back of our minds for a little bit."
