Play Ball, Aggies!
And you thought I only followed basketball and football, eh? Mostly true. Baseball had its time for me, but its too boring to watch when there are other options.
But that doesn’t mean I can’t take pride as an Aggie Alumni. The Ags actually play great baseball too! This past weekend they hosted a regional tournament and had to claw their way out of the loser’s bracket to advance. They did so by beating Louisiana Lafayette (who?!) on consecutive days; the last victory coming behind sophomore pitcher Kyle Thebeau (shouldn’t he have been playing for the Rajun Cajuns?) who had a career-high 13 strikeouts.
So this weekend they head to Houston to play a best of three series against Rice who are 52-12 on the year. Two of those twelve losses are against A&M. If they win, they make it to the College World Series. And then I may have to watch.
