ARLINGTON – The No. 4 ranked Texas A&M baseball team capped off an undefeated weekend at the Kubota College Baseball Series with a 10-5 victory over Arizona State (5-6) Sunday afternoon from Globe Life Field.
Â
With the win, the Aggies are off to an 11-0 start for the first time since 2015 and the ninth time in program history.
Â
Zane Badmaev picked up the win in relief for the Maroon & White, allowing one run over 1.1 innings of work. Starter Justin Lamkin earned a no-decision after working four innings of one-run baseball to go along with five strikeouts. Out of the bullpen, Brad Rudis and Shane Sdao registered scoreless outings.
Â
Hank Bard and Ted Burton registered multi-hit performances for Texas A&M as the duo both finished 2-for-3 at the dish. Bard also plated three RBI on the day. Junior Braden Montgomery continued to stay hot at the plate, going 1-for-3 with a grand slam and two walks.Â
Â
Following three consecutive walks in the opening frame, Bard put the Aggies in front, 3-0, with a bases-clearing double that just skipped over the third base bag.
Â
In the second, the Maroon & White once again loaded the bases on three walks to bring up the red-hot Montgomery. The junior broke the game open with a mammoth grand slam that traveled 443 feet into the concourse level on the second deck. The long ball marked his fifth of the season and second on the weekend.
Â
Ol' Sarges' charges put another crooked number on the board in the third as three more runs came across to score, stretching the advantage to 10-0. Ali Camarillo plated Bard, who reached on a leadoff single, on an RBI fielder's choice and later came around to score on a two-run infield single by Jace LaViolette.
Â
Arizona State broke through on the scoreboard in the sixth, tacked on a pair of runs in the eighth and added another run in the ninth to make the final 10-5.
Inside the Box Score
The Maroon & White travel to Austin to face the No. 8 Texas Longhorns in midweek action Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. from UFCU DischFalk Field.
