Tarleton State Baseball Faces TCU in Fort Worth

The Texas State Bobcats (5-2) are set to face the top-ranked Texas A&M Aggies (5-1) tonight at Blue Bell Park, with junior left-hander Jesus Tovar starting for Texas State after a strong previous outing. Texas State is coming off a challenging series against Illinois, while the Aggies have had a strong start this season, outscoring opponents 44-21. Meanwhile, the TCU Horned Frogs (5-2) will host the Tarleton State Texans (3-4) for their home opener, looking to break a two-game losing streak after a disappointing performance in the Amergy Bank College Classic. TCU's freshman lefty Mason Brassfield will take the mound against a Tarleton team known for its high-scoring offense, averaging 10.6 runs per game. Tarleton State features several standout hitters, including Braden Gotisha, who has a .450 batting average, and junior outfielder Tyson Drake, who has already hit five home runs this season. Both games promise exciting matchups as teams seek to establish momentum early in the season.
