Wildcats knock off Aggies!

The University of Arizona baseball team beat the host Texas A and M Aggies 7-4 tonight in College Station, Texas, surviving the heat, the humidity, a couple of ninth-inning balks and the hometown crowd to advance to tomorrow's regional final.

The winner of the 6:30 p.m. matchup tomorrow between the Wildcats and Aggies will advance to next week's Super Regional. Arizona's Bryce Ortega went 3 for 3 to lead the Wildcats. Ortega has collected 11 hits in the four games. Reliever Nick Cunningham picked up the win in relief of Tyler Hale, who was hit by a come-backer in the third inning.
