Behind stellar pitching, consistent offense, and a will to win and in front of a nationally televised audience, #10 Texas A&M (31-7, 12-5) also secured their fourth straight conference series victory.
The squad is in a winning rhythm, having won 11 of their last 12 SEC contests and holding a current six-game win streak.GAME 1: #10 A&M 10, LSU 4Jorian Wilson’s first collegiate multi-homer day catapulted No. 10 Texas A&M to a 10-4 series opening win over LSU on Friday night at Alex Box Stadium in Baton Rouge, La. The freshman blasted a pair of two-run homers to pace the Aggie offense’s eighth double-digit output in conference play this season.Ice was broken by Texas A&M (29-7, 10-5) in the third inning with a Caden Sorrell RBI groundout. The junior’s productive at-bat was set up by a walk and single that set up runners on the corners with less than two outs.
LSU (23-16, 6-10) would tie things up one inning later on Steven Milam’s solo shot.From that point, it was mostly Maroon and White. A three-run fifth gave A&M the 4-1 lead off Chris Hacopian’s run-scoring single and a Jake Duer two-run base hit up the middle. The Tigers did respond with an RBI single in the bottom half, but the bats went quiet for the hosts until the eighth.The longball power was on display in the sixth, as Wilson launched his first homer of the night to left center.
Gavin Grahovac piled on with a solo shot to right center to really extend the Aggie advantage to 7-2.GAVIN GRAHOVAC.

Shane Sdao worked into the fifth, allowed two earned runs, and struck out four across 4.2 innings of work.
Gavin Lyons took the baton from the lefty and also punched out four in his 2.1 innings.A wild pitch in the eighth scored another A&M run before LSU grabbed two runs in the bottom half on an error and a sacrifice fly to close the gap to 8-4. Wilson called game with his second longball of the night in the ninth, while Ethan Darden closed out his second scoreless inning of work to finish the victory for A&M.DOS OPPO TACOS FOR @JorianWilson12 👏 pic.twitter.com/k9JCUuz29o— Texas A&M Baseball (@AggieBaseball) April 18, 2026Something of note: Hacopian took a 93-mph fastball to the face in the eighth inning on Friday.
He did play in both remaining games this weekend, showing off his power on Sunday.GAME 2: #10 A&M 7, LSU 2A seven-inning outing from Aidan Sims paced Texas A&M (30-7, 11-5) to a 7-2 road victory over LSU at Alex Box Stadium in Baton Rouge. The 30th Aggie win of the season also secured a fourth straight conference series win and their first in Louisiana in four years.Five runs between the second and third innings provided more than enough run support for Sims. In his second start since being moved off Sundays, the sophomore shoved.
He struck out the side to start the contest and punched out six across his first three frames.He said "thanks for playing" 😂👏 @AidenSims4pic.twitter.com/rHnXYQ4py4— Texas A&M Baseball (@AggieBaseball) April 18, 2026As for the Aggie offense, they went back to work. They made Tiger (23-17, 6-11) pitching work overtime. A wild pitch gave Jorian Wilson another RBI opportunity, driving home the game’s first run with a single.
Bear Harrison cashed in three pitches later, launching his sixth homer of the year to left to give A&M a 3-0 lead. GONE. His 6th homer of the year 👍 @bearharrison32pic.twitter.com/t5IOTf4JS6— Texas A&M Baseball (@AggieBaseball) April 18, 2026Steven Milam hit his second homer in as many days, another solo shot, to put LSU on the board and provide an immediate response.
That was Sims’ only true blemish on an otherwise stellar outing. Gavin Grahovac got the run back in the next half inning, punishing the second pitch of the third to left for a 4-1 advantage. Jake Duer later brought home the fifth Aggie run on a sacrifice fly.Teams traded single scores in the fifth, as Chris Hacopian picked up an RBI after getting plunked in the face in game one.
LSU used a fielder’s choice in the bottom half to get the score to 6-2.Grahovac collected another RBI in the sixth, which proved to be enough offense on Saturday night. Sims (7-0) took held the Tigers off the board in his final two innings of work, completing seven frames of two-run baseball. The sophomore retired nine of the final 10 Tigers he faced, paving the way for Clayton Freshcorn.Freshcorn got some help from his defense in the eighth and wo
