Texas A&M crushed Vanderbilt 12–0 in Game 3 behind Aiden Sims’ dominant outing and four home runs, securing their second straight SEC series win.

Texas A&M baseball closed out the weekend in emphatic fashion, jumping all over Vanderbilt in Game 3 for a dominant 12–0 run‑rule victory to secure their second straight SEC series win . It was the exact response the Aggies needed after dropping Thursday’s opener. Before getting to the offensive explosion, the story of the day was sophomore right‑hander Aiden Sims, who delivered his strongest outing of the season and made a compelling case to climb the weekend rotation.

He set the tone early and never let Vanderbilt catch its breath. A&M’s lineup returned the favor from Game 1 by putting on a hitting clinic, piling up 13 hits and four home runs. The scoring started in the first when Chris Hacopian launched a two‑run homer following a Caden Sorrell walk.

One inning later, Bear Harrison matched him with a two‑run shot of his own after freshman Jorian Wilson tripled. The Aggies kept pouring it on. After a Jake Duer single and Nico Partida walk, College Station native Blake Binderup crushed the third home run of the afternoon to extend the lead to 7–0.

Sims followed with another scoreless frame, and Partida rewarded him by blasting a two‑run homer over the left‑center wall to make it 9–0. After a quiet fifth, A&M went right back to work. With one out, Jorian Wilson ripped a double and moved to third on a wild pitch.
