We're getting our baseball somehow. I'm not sure I can keep finding wins for the exact corresponding day, though it was looking pretty easy to do. Also records and boxes thin out around 2003. Not sure if I should do it by date, week of the season, or opponent (try and find a good Auburn Saturday game to remember when we're playing Auburn. SEC games will probably have threads we can bump for old game discussions, but I'm not sure we're always at our finest arguing in some of them). But this one was too good to pass up....somehow already 12 years ago the Aggies walked off Tech in 12 innings, and AggieBand2004 was nice enough to put it on Youtube for us to remember.
Aggies
1. Colligan-CF
2. Carter-3rd
3. Stouffer-2nd
4. Duran-SS
5. L. Anders-1st
6. Brown-DH
7. B. Ruggiano-LF
8. Aaron-RF
9. Gonzalez-C
P-Raley
The Aggies started their 2008 conference season against Tech at Olsen, coming in with a 14-3 record. Tech took the early lead, with 2 solo home runs off Aggie starter Brooks Raley. The Aggies came storming back with 5 runs bunched through the 3rd, 4th, and 5th innings. Three of those runs came on Colligan's 2nd home run of the season, a 3 run homer in the 4th.
Tech scored 3 in the top of the 7th to notch things at 5 before the Aggie bullpen came in to hold things down for what ended up being 5.2 more innings. After Raley gave 3 earned over 6.1 IP, Kyle Thebeau and Travis Starling went on to give up 0 earned the rest of the way. The Aggies managed 10 hits, but also struck out 20 times in the game.
All of this set up Dane Carter for his monster homer to right with 2 outs to give the Aggies a win in the bottom of the 12th innings. I remember it went a long way, but you can hear Scott say it cleared the railroad tracks.
-The Aggies started the conference slate at 1-0, with Starling picking up his first win of the season (1-0).
-Jose Duran, who only spent one season with the Aggies before going pro, went 3-5 on the night with a walk.
-Darby Brown went 2-4 in the DH spot, also earning a walk
