Texas A&M softball takes the series after 13-2 run-rule victory over Auburn on Saturday
No. 6 Texas A&M (23-4, 3-2 SEC) picks up another Top 25 win, beating No. 22 Auburn (20-7, 0-5 SEC) 13-2 in Game 2 to take the series on the road.
The Texas A&M Aggies stormed back to dominate the Auburn Tigers in a decisive 13-2 run-rule victory, showcasing a five-inning offensive explosion on the road. After trailing 2-1 early, A&M turned the game around with a hit parade, racking up 14 hits, including three doubles, and finding their stride at the plate.
Pitching standout Sidne Peters improved her record to an impressive 6-0, giving up only two hits and two runs. Senior Emily Leavitt closed out the fifth inning with a stellar performance, allowing zero hits, recording one strikeout, and inducing a groundout to secure the early win.
Amari Harper powered up, smashing her second home run of the season and driving in two runs, while Mac Barbara returned to form with an impressive 3-for-4 outing and one RBI. If Barbara continues her momentum, the SEC must be on high alert. After a stretch of games with limited offense, the Aggies’ bats came alive, fulfilling head coach Trisha Ford’s confidence that her team would regain their spark at the right time.
"I thought offensively did a really good job today um we were do an outbreak of a game so um yeah it was a great job of executing um that first inning still nipped us in the butt a little bit, but it was good to see Sidne Peters back on the mound dominating so it was a good game"
