Where Texas A&M Baseball Ranks After Home Series Win Vs. Vanderbilt Commodores

There was plenty of change for the Texas A&M Aggies on the diamond during their weekend series against the Vanderbilt Commodores, from shifting schedules thanks to inclement weather to adjusting on the fly after Juan Vargas landed awkwardly on his ankle in Game 1.

Nonetheless, the changes still brought success to the Maroon and White, as Friday's doubleheader saw the Aggies take an 8-4 and then a 12-0 run rule-shortened win, redeeming themselves for the 14-8 loss they suffered during the series opener Thursday night.

A form of redemption that gave the Ags some more props in the national spotlight.
