Texas Baseball Adjusts First Pitch Time Against UC Davis

No. 3 Texas Baseball fans, take note — the Longhorns have bumped up the start time for their upcoming matchup against UC Davis. The program announced the adjustment to accommodate changing game-day logistics, giving supporters an early start to the action.

The Longhorns will now take the field earlier than expected at UFCU Disch-Falk Field in Austin. While the shift isn’t dramatic, it’s meaningful for fans traveling in from across the state — including many from Houston who make the regular trek to support Texas baseball.

Why the Schedule Change Matters

Texas has entered the season ranked No. 3 nationally, drawing increased attention and bigger crowds. Earlier starts often help programs avoid late-evening weather issues, allow for smoother broadcast windows, and keep teams on a tight early-season rhythm. For a squad with championship expectations, even small adjustments can shape the flow of preparation.

UC Davis enters the series looking to gain momentum, but the Longhorns will be heavy favorites at home. The time shift also gives Texas flexibility as they continue navigating a demanding nonconference schedule.

What Fans Need to Know

If you're planning to make the trip from Houston or anywhere around Texas, double-check your travel plans to ensure you arrive before first pitch. The earlier start also means tailgates and pregame routines will need a head start.

Texas Baseball remains one of the state's biggest collegiate draws, and early-season games often set the tone for conference play. With the Longhorns ranked inside the top five nationally, expectations are sky high for another deep postseason run.

As always, fans can follow game-day updates through the Texas Athletics website and social channels.
