Austin, TX (CSTV U-WIRE) -- Centerfielder Nick Peoples watched as Missouri chopped down his Longhorn teammates - literally.
First it was Jordan Danks, who bruised his shoulder running into the left-field wall twice during Saturday's game.
He left the game and didn't return until the ninth inning of Sunday's series finale as a pinch runner.
Then it was Kyle Russell, who dove for a ball and missed in the sixth inning Sunday, landing on his right wrist. He eventually made his way back to the Texas dugout after lying on the warning track for a few long moments.
Both Danks and Russell walked away from their injuries. Texas didn't.
The No. 5 Longhorns (38-14, 18-6 Big 12) dropped their first conference series of the season, two games to one, to Missouri (33-13, 14-7). Texas failed to clinch the Big 12 regular-season title after losing Sunday's rubber game 5-4 at UFCU Disch-Falk Field.
"It hurts," Peoples said. "It's a gross feeling. I just hope everyone has that taste in their mouth."
