Big 12: A&M draws purple blood, up 3-1

By Eric Sorenson - May 26, 2007

The Aggies have jumped out on K-State for three runs in the first two innings, answered by a solo home run from KSU's Rob Vaughn.

To start the second inning, Luke Anders was hit by the first Bayuk offering. Then, Kyle Colligan ripped a triple off the right field wall, scoring Anders and getting his parents all fired up in the stands. Fist-pumpin' papa was getting patted on the back by other A&M parents like he hit the thing himself.

Colligan came roaring in to score on a beautiful safety squeeze bunt by Parker Dalton, who out-ran the second baseman that was going to cover the bag on the throw from pitcher Chase Bayuk.

But I've gotta say, A&M's David Newmann has struggled so far. State just left the bases loaded here in the 2nd and have out-hit the Aggies 4-3.

Aggies up 3-1 as we go to the top of the 3rd. And man, am I ever hungry.
