Aggie Baseball Continues to Roll

SACRAMENTO, Calif. - The 25th ranked New Mexico State baseball swept a doubleheader with Sacramento State yesterday. The scores were 16-4 and 6-1 in games played at John Smith Field, Saturday.
The Aggies have now won 18 of their last 19 games while improving to 27-9 on the year and 4-1 in Western Athletic Conference play. The Hornets fell to 17-18 overall and 2-3 in league play.

Senior shortstop Zach Voight had a big game going 4-of-5 with two runs scored and seven RBI’s. Included in his four-hit game was a grand-slam in the sixth inning, his sixth home run of the year. Junior catcher Zac Fisher, who entered the game in the top three nationally for RBI’s, finished the game with three more going 3-of-5, with two doubles.
"We were really good all the way around today. It was a dominant offensive performance in game one and in game two we put up six runs in the first inning and let Adam Mott take it the rest of the way," head coach Rocky Ward said. "Sacramento played good, quality defense and you have to give them credit for that."
The Aggies take on Sacramento State in the third game of the series today at 2pm (MT). The game is scheduled to air on KSNM AM 570.
