SEC names Texas A&M baseball's local product Player of the Week

[ASFN Admin]

The Texas A&M baseball team is on an impressive six-game winning streak and has won back-to-back SEC series. There is a lot of work to be done if the Aggies want to make the postseason, and they will need everyone to be at their best.

Bryan-College Station product Blake Binderup has been struggling most of the season and was starting to split time. However, when Gavin Kash went down with an injury, Binderup was given the full opportunity, and after some tweaks to his swing he showed up big in the South Carolina series.

On Tuesday, the SEC named the redshirt sophomore as the SEC Player of the Week after a six-hit, eight RBI, two home-run weekend at home against South Carolina. Below is the excerpt from the release from the conference officials:

Texas A&M’s Blake Binderup helped the Aggies extend their winning streak to a season-high six games with a team-high .538 average to go along with a stolen base, two doubles, two homers and 10 RBI. Binderup recorded a hit in all four games, including a pair of multi-hit performances in the Aggies’ sweep of South Carolina. The first baseman also recorded an RBI in all four contests, including a career-high tying five in Friday’s series opener. With the Maroon & White trailing 3-2 in the series opener, Binderup ripped his second grand slam of the season to give Texas A&M a 6-3 advantage. In the series finale, Binderup reached base safely in all six plate appearances and delivered a key two-out, two-run homer in the Aggies’ historic comeback win.

Texas A&M will host Tarleton at Blue Bell Park on Tuesday, April 15, at 6:00 p.m. CT. The game will be streamed on SEC Network+.
