Texas A&M softball extends streak to six with 10-3 win over Baylor

Texas A&M extended its winning streak to six games on Wednesday night, rolling past Baylor 10–3 on the road behind another explosive first inning and a steadily improving offensive identity that’s starting to take shape at the right time in the season.

Midweek games can be unpredictable, just ask No. 1 Oklahoma, No. 3 Texas Tech, and No. 9 Tennessee, all of whom were upset earlier in the evening, but the Aggies avoided the trap by jumping on the Bears immediately.

A&M loaded the bases within minutes thanks to singles from Kennedy Powell and Tallen Edwards and a walk drawn by Mya Perez. The first two runs came without the benefit of a hit, as a passed ball and a Baylor fielding error opened the door. Ariel Kowalewski then doubled to score Micaela Wark, prompting an early bullpen move from the Bears.

A sac fly from Kelsey Mathis added another run, and sophomore shortstop KK Dement capped the six‑run outburst with a two‑run homer, giving the Aggies a commanding 6–0 lead before Baylor even recorded three outs.

The Bears answered with two runs in the bottom of the first and added another in the third to cut the deficit to 6–3, but both offenses went quiet in the fourth. In the fifth, freshman pinch‑hitter Maddie Sauni delivered a momentum‑shifting swing, launching a solo home run over the center‑field wall to push the lead back to four.

Texas A&M sealed the win with a three‑run seventh inning, creating a comfortable 10–3 margin heading into the final frame. The Aggies closed it out with a clean three‑up, three‑down inning to secure their sixth straight victory and another confidence‑building performance away from home.

The Aggies’ recent trend of fast starts, sustained pressure, and timely power continued, and with the lineup settling in, this group looks increasingly capable of peaking as postseason play approaches.

Texas A&M will host the No. 14 Mississippi State in a three-game series starting on Friday, April 17, at 7:30 p.m. CST. The game can be viewed on SEC Network and the ESPN App.
