ARLINGTON, Tx. - Three games in to the 2021 season, the Rebels proved why they are the No. 1 college baseball team in all the land, even in Monday’s victory over the Texas Longhorns. Derek Diamond (1-0) put on a show as Ole Miss (3-0) knocked off the Longhorns 8-1 at Globe Life Park, getting the three game sweep in the 2021 State Farm College Baseball Showdown.
In six innings, Diamond struck out eight batters, including a streak of nine retired batters in the middle innings. He yielded on run on four hits while freshmen Brandon Johnson and Josh Mallitz capped off the weekend out of the bullpen.
