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.
