After putting up runs in the third and fourth innings, the Irish blew the game open in the top of the fifth, racking up three runs to bolster their lead.
The Longhorns battled back, putting up one run in the bottom of the fifth and sixth innings, but Notre Dame sealed the win with another homer to the right side in the top of the ninth inning by Carter Putz to put the Irish up 7-3.
