Olsen Magic is a real thing and was in full effect on Saturday. Texas A&M erased a 10-run deficit to complete the series sweep over South Carolina with a 15-12 win in front of a home crowd at Blue Bell Park.
The Texas A&M Aggies baseball team showcased resilience and determination in a thrilling matchup, pulling off a stunning 15-12 victory against the South Carolina Gamecocks. This electrifying comeback began with a challenging start for Myles Patton and Clayton Freshcorn, who struggled in the fifth inning, giving up seven runs and leaving the Aggies trailing 8-2. The situation seemed dire as the score widened to 12-2 in the sixth inning.
However, the Aggies refused to back down. They chipped away at the deficit inning by inning, igniting hope among the crowd. In the bottom of the ninth, Hayden Schott delivered a clutch grand slam, narrowing the gap to just one run. Moments later, Kaeden Kent sealed the game with a walk-off grand slam, completing the remarkable comeback and securing the series sweep over South Carolina.
This pivotal win gives Texas A&M much-needed momentum as they prepare to face No. 1 Arkansas on the road next weekend. With their bats on fire and a newfound confidence, the Aggies aim to make a statement in Fayetteville by challenging the Razorbacks.
Aggie fans and the college baseball community are buzzing with excitement, as Texas A&M continues to establish itself as a formidable force this season. Below are some of the best reactions from fans and media after Saturday's win.
Texas A&M will host Tarleton at Blue Bell Park on Tuesday, April 15, at 6:00 p.m. CT. The game will be streamed on SEC Network+.

40 runs through three SEC games
.@AggieBaseball hit two grand slams in the ninth inning to beat South Carolina. A&M scored 40 runs in three games in the sweep. That series at Arkansas will be mighty interesting. https://t.co/iGp5C57mDh

This will be on repeat for all Aggie fans for at least a week

Epic ending to the week and extend their winning streak
The most insane ninth you’ll ever see. Schott and Kent both hit grand slams as the Aggies walk off South Carolina to complete the sweep after trailing 12-2 earlier in the game.
Six straight wins. Five straight SEC wins.
The Aggies are officially HOT https://t.co/W6pPT8SMMC

When the pitching struggled late Brad Rudis was the steady hand
Unsung hero today is Brad Rudis. He came in and shut down what could’ve been an even uglier 6th inning and threw 3 scoreless frames. Helped stabilize things on the mound.

Amazing way to end the week for the baseball team
Has new basketball head coach Bucky McMillan been a good luck charm?

Kaeden Kent comes up clutch again and again
That’s now twice that Kaeden Kent has hit a single & Grand Slam in the same inning in his Aggie career.
The last time he did it was when he nearly blew the roof off of Blue Bell Park in Gm 2 of the Super Regional against Oregon last season.
It’s almost like it’s in his blood https://t.co/I6b9xYvUw5

Henry Coleman saw how far that ball flew
The Aggies never give up and are one of the hottest team in the SEC right now
“I’ve never seen em’ quit.”
True for not only today, scoring 13 unanswered to walk-off South Carolina, but this entire season.
Let’s keep pushing. Gig’Em

Magic was in the air
Texas A&M makes baseball history on Saturday
From @grok: This (A&M 15, South Carolina 12) marked the first time in recorded baseball history—college or MLB—that a team hit two grand slams in the bottom of the ninth to win a game. @AggieBaseball
