May 26, 2022 | Baseball
HOOVER, Alabama – No. 9 Texas A&M pounded out four home runs and Micah Dallas and Joseph Menefee held Florida to one hit as the Aggies topped the Gators, 10-0, to open their 2022 SEC Baseball Tournament at Hoover Metropolitan Stadium.
Trevor Werner, Ryan Targac, Jordan Thompson and Austin Bost blasted dingers in the Aggies' offensive explosion. Bost's three-run tater in the sixth put the Maroon & White in position to run-rule Florida after Menefee retired the side in order in the top of the seventh. Werner and Targac each added a double as A&M logged eight extra-base hits.
Dallas (5-3) scattered one hit and one walk while striking out seven in 5.0 innings to earn the win. Menefee, who entered the game with A&M up by three runs after five innings, earned his first save of the season. He struck out four of the six batters he faced in 2.0 innings.
