Texas A&M Aggies Baseball Beats Houston Christian Huskies 6-3

The Texas A&M Aggies remain hot on offense.

The Texas A&M Aggies baseball team continued its dominance outside of SEC play on Tuesday night with a hard fought 6-3 win over the Houston Christian Huskies at Olsen Field at Blue Bell Park in College Station.

In his first career start, redshirt freshman Luke Jackson received a no-decision after striking out two Huskies over 2.2 scoreless innings. Junior right-hander Chris Cortez earned the win in the third inning after retiring the only batter he faced.

The Aggies' offense was led by Hayden Schott who finished the game 2-for-5 at the plate in addition to his game-best three RBIs, while Ali Camarillo was the only other A&M player to have more than one hit with a 2-for-4 game with one RBI.

Texas A&M started the scoring in the third inning with an infield single by Schott before the Aggies extended their lead in the fourth with a Braden Montgomery bases-loaded RBI walk for a 2-0 score. Senior Ted Burton walked in the seventh before Schott brought him home before Camarillo plated Schott on a line drive hit down the third base line for a 3-0 lead.

The Aggies struck again in the eighth with a bases-loaded walk by Burton and an RBI groundout by Schott for a 6-0 lead.

The Huskies tried to make it interesting in the final frame with three runs on four walks and one hit-by-pitch.

With the win, the Aggies are now 16-0 all time against the Huskies, while Schott logged his sixth multi-RBI game of the season. Gavin Grahovac has now reached base safely in 145 consecutive games while Camarillo extended his on-base stretch to 11 games.

Up next for the Aggies is a three-game home stand back in SEC play against the Auburn Tigers, beginning Thursday night at 6 p.m. CT from Olsen Field at Blue Bell Park.
