Texas A&M baseball may have found their groove following eye-popping offensive explosion

Texas A&M baseball had had a rocky start to the season, but all of a sudden, they are looking like a top team once again.

Texas A&M baseball's season has not gone the way they want it to in the least so far. The Aggies started off the year as the top-ranked squad in the sport, but they quickly tumbled out of the rankings altogether following a turgid offensive slump.

For a team with such a level of talent top to bottom in the batting order, the Aggies were remarkably inept at the plate— even more so than their extremely bad injury luck would suggest. This led to no shortage of frustration on the part of the fans, and growing calls for the Mike Earley experiment to be brought to a swift end.

However, the Aggies may have just found their groove. If they're going to turn things around, now is the time, and it's looking like that this past weekend may not have been a fluke.

Texas A&M baseball crushes midweek opponent with blistering offense, continuing positive trend

Texas A&M baseball visited Sam Houston State down in Huntsville last night for an away midweek game, and Aggie fans were watching with rapt anticipation. The Aggies were coming off of an eye-catching series win over the then-top-ranked Tennessee Volunteers in Knoxville, including a game in which they run-ruled a potent Vols team.

The Maroon and White faithful wanted to see if the Aggies would keep up that pace or be coasting heading into a game where they needed to stay frosty— while a mid-major, Sam Houston is no slouch in the world of college baseball.

All Earley's team did is give A&M fans even more reason for hope, however. The game was over after seven innings following the Aggies running up a 14-1 lead over the Bearkats— including 3-for-3 nights at the plate from both Henseler and Sorrell.

Texas A&M baseball now awaits South Carolina for a winnable home series at Olsen. If the Aggies can take two of three there— or even, dare I say, sweep the Gamecocks— they'll be back on track for the postseason. There's still a lot of work to do and a bear of a schedule to face down, but the Aggies have the talent to do it.

Let's just hope they keep showing that they do.
