Aggies Drop Game One of Cotton Holdings Lone Star Showdown
Apr 26, 2025 | Baseball
AUSTIN – The Texas A&M baseball team dropped a 2-1 pitcher's duel at No. 1 Texas Friday night in the series opener of the Cotton Holdings Lone Star Showdown at UFCU Disch-Falk Field.
Trailing 2-0 entering the eighth, the Aggies (24-17, 8-11) cut the deficit in half, 2-1, as Ben Royo, who reached on a leadoff double, came around to score on an error. Following a single from Caden Sorrell, the Maroon & White had two on with two outs but a strikeout ended the threat.
In the ninth, Texas A&M had the tying run on second and the go-ahead run on first with two outs but a strikeout put an end to the rally and the contest.
The Longhorns (35-5, 17-2) opened the scoring in the third with an RBI double and later added to their lead in the seventh with a solo homer to right.
Starter Ryan Prager (2-3) was handed the loss despite working 5 2/3 innings of one-run baseball. The left-hander also struck out three and allowed only one walk on the night.
Inside the Box Score
The Aggies will look to even the series Saturday afternoon as game two is scheduled for 3 p.m.
