In one of the best overall performances from Texas A&M so far this season, the Aggies dominated No. 2 Texas in an 11-4 rout for the series win in the Lone Star Showdown on Saturday.
It was far from being a glorious return to Bryan-College Station for Texas head coach Jim Schlossnagle, as he will leave with the first SEC series loss of 2026. Meanwhile, Michael Earley’s club will look for the sweep after another dominant performance at the plate.

The Aggies recorded nine hits, 11 RBI and one home run, which was a two-run blast from Caden Sorrell, who currently leads the league with 18 thus far. Gavin Grahovac continued his hot streak at the plate with his second consecutive game with a triple. He also notched three RBI for the Maroon and White against the SEC’s leading pitching staff in ERA.
With so many questions surrounding the Aggie bullpen, they responded in a big way in Game 2’s win over the Longhorns. Aiden Sims recorded three strikeouts and allowed just three earned runs in 4.2 innings pitched, while Gavin Lyons came in and closed things out with five strikeouts and one earned run.
