Texas A&M sweeps Mississippi State with exciting 10–9 Game 3 win.

Texas A&M brought out the brooms on Sunday afternoon, taking a wild Game 3 win at Davis Diamond to secure their third SEC sweep of the season. The victory also marks their fifth conference series win, ensuring the Aggies will finish the regular season with more series wins than losses.

With five wins in their last six SEC matchups and only six games remaining, A&M continues to strengthen its case to host an NCAA regional, finding ways to win as postseason play approaches.

Having already clinched the series with two tight victories, the Aggies had the sweep within reach, but Mississippi State came out firing in the finale. The Bulldogs erupted for six runs in the first inning, chasing starter Grace Sparks after going on a two-out rally. A&M nearly answered immediately but left the bases loaded in the bottom half, heading into the second inning down 6–0.

Taylor Pannell steadied the game by working around four free passes to keep Mississippi State off the board, and the Aggie offense responded with an explosive second inning. Three straight singles loaded the bases for Kennedy Powell, who punched a single through the left side to score KK Dement.

A walk to Tallen Edwards cut the deficit to 6–2, and with nowhere to put Mya Perez, the Bulldogs were forced to pitch to her. Perez made them pay with a game‑tying grand slam that ignited the crowd and reset the game.

A hit‑by‑pitch put another runner aboard, and Kelsey Mathis followed with an RBI double to give A&M its first lead. Moments later, Paisley Allen launched a two‑run homer to cap the eight‑run inning and push the Aggies ahead 9–6 entering the third.

What looked like an offensive shootout quickly shifted back into the defensive battle seen in the first two games. Both teams turned to their bullpens, and scoring slowed. A&M scratched across an insurance run in the fourth to extend the lead, while the Aggie staff held Mississippi State scoreless for five straight innings.

Up 10–6 in the seventh and one out away from sealing the sweep, A&M had to survive one final push. The Bulldogs strung together back‑to‑back singles to plate three runs and pull within one, putting the tying run in scoring position. With the game hanging in the balance, Sidne Peters induced a flyout from one of Mississippi State’s top hitters to close out the 10–9 win and complete the sweep.

Texas A&M will be on the road to face South Carolina in a three-game series starting on Friday, April 24, at 7 p.m. CST. The game can be viewed on ESPN2 and the ESPN App.
