Missed opportunities led to Texas A&M baseball dropping its second consecutive SEC series, losing 6-5 to Ole Miss in the rubber match at Swayze Field.

The Aggies started Saturday's doubleheader on the right foot with a dominant 18-5 run-rule win over the Rebels to even the series. After a disappointing performance in the opener, Texas A&M's lineup gathered its composure to record seven home runs and 17 RBIs. Four of the home runs came from Chris Hacopian and Ben Royo, who secured two each in the win.

Royo had no home runs in his minimal playing time this season, but he exploded onto the scene when the Aggies needed him most. The junior infielder replaced shortstop Boston Kellner, who is believed to have a broken orbital bone from being hit by a fastball in his at-bat on Friday night. Royo recorded three home runs and five RBIs on Saturday and will likely see more playing time moving forward due to the plethora of injuries Texas A&M is dealing with entering the regular-season finale this week.

Next up, Texas A&M returns to Blue Bell Park for the regular-season finale against Mississippi State. The series opener is scheduled for 6 p.m. CT on Thursday, followed by Game 2 on Friday at 6 p.m. CT. Game 3 was moved from its original start time to 11 a.m. CT in Bryan-College Station.

Here are some of the best social media reactions from the series loss to Ole Miss on Saturday:

Aggies drop nail-biting finale​



Aggies drop a nail-biter in the finale.

Overall, a pretty gutsy 18 innings today for a team dealing with significant injuries.

The regular season wraps up next weekend at Blue Bell Park, and A&M needs a series win over Mississippi State at a minimum to wrap up a national seed. https://t.co/vkJzokZx5H

Some missed opportunities, but some solid performances from fresh faces this weekend​



Offense failed to produce in two games the bullpen held it down really well. Probably does it for our national seed hopes. No midweek this week ahead of Mississippi State coming to town.

Ben Royo was a bright spot, going 7-7 after Kellner suffered an orbital fracture with three…

Final statistics from Texas A&M's 6-5 loss in Game 3​



Texas A&M falls at Ole Miss, 6-5, and drops its second straight series after losing two out of three. A&M tallied five runs in the fourth, and Royo and Binderup came up big again, but a shaky start from Moss and the rest of the Aggie offense struggling was too much to overcome. pic.twitter.com/MkIUZMP0S6

Impressive performance from Royo in Kellner's spot in the lineup​



Royo finished 7-7 today with 3 homers. Incredible for a guy that hasn't played all season.

Aggies battle adversity over the weekend​



Didn’t get to watch much A&M baseball today but honestly not even mad. Battling a lot of adversity and almost got a series on the road against a good team. Still in great position to host a regional. They’ll be alright
