Texas A&M rides dominating sweep of Vandy to top of college baseball rankings
The Texas A&M Aggies had quite the weekend.
The Aggies (32-4) surged to the top of the college baseball rankings with three straight dominating wins over Vanderbilt, posting a pair of shutouts and a collective 36-6 margin.
It was the program’s first sweep of Vandy and the most runs Texas A&M has scored in a Southeastern Conference series. They’re off to their best SEC start through 15 games (11-4) since 2015 and lead the nation in wins.
“I can’t imagine it being much better between the crowds ... It felt like a super regional every day,” Aggies coach Jim Schlossnagle said.
Texas A&M started off with a 15-0, mercy-rule game with Ryan Prager pitching a complete game (seven innings) shutout while allowing only four hits and no walks.
Tanner Jones followed with his best outing for the Aggies, going 7-1/3 scoreless innings in a 9-0 victory. It was the first time Texas A&M had produced back-to-back shutouts in SEC games since 2016 and was the team’s national-best eighth of the season.
