COLLEGE STATION, Texas – The Texas A&M Aggies finished the series sweep of the Brown Bears with a 5-1 win Sunday afternoon on Blue Bell Park at Olsen Field.



Mitchell Kilkenny (2-0) kept the Bears in check over his seven innings of work. The sophomore fanned five and allowed just the one Brown run in his second straight seven-inning outing. Landon Miner and Turner Larkins worked the final two frames to secure the A&M victory.



The Bears (0-6) were first on the board with a one-run third inning. Willy Hozma doubled for his second hit of the ball game to lead off the frame. Sam Grigo drove in Hozma with a single to left but was cut down trying to stretch in into a double.



Texas A&M (14-3) strung together three hits in the fourth to even up the score off Bear starter Max Ritchie (0-2). Braden Shewmake led off with a single and advanced to third on a bloop hit off the bat of Cole Bedford . Jorge Gutierrez got credit for the RBI in the next at-bat as he singled through the left side of the infield, plating his fellow freshman Shewmake.



The Aggies took the lead for good with a two-run fifth. Homan led off the inning with his second hit of the ballgame. Blake Kopetsky moved him to third on a single of his own. Logan Foster 's flew out for the first out of the frame not quite deep enough to score Homan, but an error allowed Kopetsky to make it two Aggies in scoring position. Shewmake plated the pair on his subsequent single up the gut, giving A&M a 3-1 lead after five.



The bats added a couple insurance runs in the eighth which began with George Janca 's two-out single. Walker Pennington got hit by a pitch setting up Nick Choruby for the two-run RBI double.



The A&M staff took care of the rest of the ball game not allowing Brown to reach second after the 5th. They combined on seven Ks and eight hits allowed.



On the other side of things, Shewmake finished the series hitting 6-for-13 with one walk. Homan also reached twice on a 2-for-4 day with a double and a run scored.



Next up, the Aggies travel to Austin for the first time since 2013 on Tuesday for a 6:30 tilt with the Texas Longhorns. They return to College Station to open up SEC play next Friday with a three-game series against Kentucky.
