Cade McGee has been a stalwart in the lineup, batting fifth, for the Texas Tech baseball team.

On Friday, the 6-foot-1, 195-pound infielder provided a web gem for the crowd during the Red Raiders home-opening series against Texas Southern. The third baseman had hit fifth in the lineup and came into the contest with a .200 batting average to go with three hits, which included a double.

The Gonzaga transfer, who was limited to 20 games due to injury during the 2023 campaign, earned Freshman All-America accolades back in 2022 and was the WCC Freshman of the Year.

What's next

Texas Tech and Texas Southern are scheduled continue their three-game series with a 2 p.m. Saturday contest. The set is slated to conclude with a 1 p.m. Sunday getaway tilt. All games are set to be streamed on ESPN+.
