BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The No. 15 Texas A&M Aggies run-ruled the Houston Christian Huskies, 23-0, Blue Bell Park on Tuesday night.
The Maroon & White (5-3) got off to a hot start, scoring six in the first inning to make a statement against HCU (0-8). From there, the Aggies did not look back, going on to score 17 more, including Austin Bost’s grand slam in the bottom of the fourth inning.
Bost would go on to finish with three extra-base hits on the night and a career-best six RBI, surpassing the 100-RBI mark for his career in the process. He was not the only Aggie hitter to enjoy a big night as Texas A&M totaled 17 hits and 21 RBI in the seven-inning affair.
Trevor Werner tied a school single-game record with five runs scored, walking three times and smashing his second home run of the season to lead off the second inning. In all, six Aggies finished with multiple RBI.
Aggie pitching backed up the offense, as seven pitchers combined for six strikeouts and only gvae up four hits. Redshirt freshman Ty Sexton was credited with his first career victory, allowing just one hit in his inning of work.
The 23 runs are the most runs Texas A&M has scored since its 23-9 win against Georgia on April 16, 2022.
