No. 21 Texas A&M Hosts No. 5 Georgia With Bullpen Shorthanded

Coach Michael Earley is pressing for longer starts to cover season-ending bullpen losses.

Overview

  • Head coach Michael Earley confirmed senior reliever Josh Stewart will miss the rest of the season after his injury against Oklahoma.
  • With depth strained by multiple season-ending losses, Earley said the Aggies need more innings from starters to protect the remaining relievers.
  • The three-game set at Olsen Field runs March 20–22, with LHP Shane Sdao facing RHP Joey Volchko in Game 1 and Weston Moss and Aiden Sims slated for Games 2 and 3.
  • Texas A&M enters 17–3 (1–2 SEC) with a .329 team batting average led by Caden Sorrell (.389, 11 HR, 37 RBI) and Chris Hacopian (.370).
  • No. 5 Georgia arrives 17–4 (2–1 SEC) leading the SEC in batting average (.343) and home runs (69), while outside analysts have floated freshman Nico Partida as a possible relief option.
