In the bottom of the third, Tommy White and Jared Jones hit solo homers and Hayden Travinski hit an RBI single to tie the game 3-3.

In the bottom of the seventh inning, Alex Milazzo scored on a wild pitch to give LSU a 4-3 lead.

In the bottom of the eighth inning, Milazzo gave LSU an insurance run when he hit an RBI single to increase the lead to 5-3. White then hit another RBI single to increase the lead to 6-3 as we headed to the ninth inning.

In the top of the ninth inning, the Aggies scored a run on the RBI single to cut the lead to 6-4. Gavin Guidry entered to pitch after Christian Little and Justin Loer and he was able to get the final out to win the series. LSU will go for a sweep on Sunday at 1 p.m. CT.
