RteaMwIeM^he Aggies used line-drive base
hits and rambunctious base running
to fuel their consistent offense. A&M
scored runs in five of seven innings.
“We put the ball in play and con
tinued to put pressure on their de
fense to make plays,” Evans said.
Aggie batters failed to put the ball
into play only twice in Sunday’s
game.
A&M started the tournament with
losses to fifth-ranked Alabama and
Penn State. A&M lost to each by one
run.
Alabama downed the Aggies 2-1
on Friday. The Crimson Tide used the
momentum from that win to sweep
the rest of the invitational and capture
the invitational title.
In their second game on Friday,
the Aggies lost another one-run
game, as the Penn State Nittany Li
ons defeated A&M, 4-3.
The two teams met again Satur
day and the Aggies, using a re
arranged line-up, returned the favor
by winning 4-1.
The Aggies closed out the tour
nament with a 10-1 thumping of
Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on
Saturday.
“These tournaments are good for
tweaking the line-up. A lot of games
in a few days gives a lot of people a
chance to play,” Evans said.
