Aggies blast past No. 25 Texas A&M-Kingsville 11-1

LAWTON – Cameron smashed three homers and their pitching staff struck out 14 batters to beat No. 25 Texas A&M-Kingsvile 11-1 at McCord Field on Friday afternoon.
 
The game ended off of a Tyler McKinzie two run shot in the eighth inning to send TAMUK to their second straight run-ruled loss in a row.   Cameron's win sends them to 22-11 overall and 10-11 in Lone Star Conference play; Texas A&M-Kingville slipped to 23-11 and 14-8 the league.  

Dirk Masters and Logan Fanning held the Javelinas to only three hits with CU's batters getting ten.  Nate Hale had three of the Aggie hits with three RBI, Jorden Fields pushed his hitting streak to nine games with a pair of hits, and Jonathan Reyes had two hits and two RBI. 

Fields gave the Aggies the early lead in the second with a solo shot to left field but a leadoff walk in the fourth to Texas A&M-Kingsville and a wild pitch put a runner in scoring position.  The Javelinas would get a two out single to bring in runner in from second to tie the game at one each.  

Cameron broke the tie in the seventh inning off a Cole Williams squeeze play with a runner a third, Williams reached on a fielding error but picked up a RBI.  Hale later in the inning scored two off of a single and McKinzie pushed the CU lead to 5-1 on a ground ball out where a TAMUK error allowed an extra run to score.  

Reyes in the ninth gave the Aggies six run lead off of a two run shot, Hale continued the scoring with a two RBI single, and McKinzie ended the game with rocket over the left field fence to score two more runs.  

Masters started the game going five-plus innings, with eight strikeouts, and two hits given up in the no-decision; Fanning (4-0) came out of the bullpen and punched out six in three innings. 

The series will conclude on Saturday with a doubleheader starting at 1 p.m. at McCord Field.
