News release from Texas A&M Athletics:\u00a0<\/p>\n

No. 24 Texas A&M rode four home runs and nine hits to triumph over A&M-Corpus Christi in midweek action, 8-3, from Olsen Field at Blue Bell Park Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

Eight Aggies recorded a hit, and a trio of freshman belted home runs in the win. Nico Partida drilled a solo shot for his second homer of the season, while Boston Kellner and Jorian Wilson each blasted the first round-trippers of their respective careers.<\/p>\n

Kellner\u2019s two-run shot in the sixth inning gave Texas A&M (4-0) its first lead of the contest, 3-2. After the Islanders knotted things up at three in the top half of the seventh, Wilson mauled the first pitch of his at-bat 387 feet to put the Maroon & White back in front, 5-3.<\/p>\n

Bear Harrison smashed his first home run of the season in the eighth to add an insurance run for the Aggies, followed by a Terrence Kiel II single that brought home two more.<\/p>\n

Gavin Lyons worked 5.0 innings as the starter, allowing four hits, two runs and struck out a career-high six batters. Ethan Darden (1-0) earned the win out of the bullpen. The senior dealt 2.0 innings with three punchouts and allowed one run on two hits.<\/p>\n

Juan Vargas and Clayton Freshcorn closed the door on the win in the final two frames. Both right-handers tossed 1.0 scoreless inning and combined for four strikeouts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"News release from Texas A&M Athletics:\u00a0 No. 24 Texas A&M rode four home runs and nine hits to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":168101,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[155,157,156],"class_list":["post-169645","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-corpus-christi","tag-corpus-christi","tag-corpus-christi-headlines","tag-corpus-christi-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/169645","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=169645"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/169645\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/168101"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=169645"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=169645"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=169645"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
