Since Major League Baseball’s 2018 season got underway on Thursday, Texas fans now have four reasons to root for teams that don’t play at UFCU Disch-Falk Field.
According to Texas, four ex-Longhorns opened this season on a MLB roster. San Francisco first baseman Brandon Belt is joined in the major leagues by pitchers Corey Knebel (Milwaukee), Hoby Milner (Philadelphia) and Dillon Peters (Miami).
