No. 3 overall seed Texas A&M (49-13) got everything it wanted from Oregon, and more, in Game 2 of the on Sunday.

Indeed, it seemed as if the Ducks might force the "if-necessary" Game 3 on Monday after taking an 8-4 lead into the seventh inning. But, thanks to a monster nine-run inning from the home team — including a grand slam from Keadan Kent, who replaced an injured Braden Montgomery in the batting order — the Aggies were able to prevail, 15-9, to advance to the .

As auspicious as the seventh inning was for the Aggies, however, Game 2 was eerily similar to the first game after starting pitcher Shane Sdao exited with less than an inning of work with an apparent right arm injury. He exited following a two-run homer by Oregon, which the Ducks promptly followed with two more consecutive homers to take a quick 4-1 lead.

From there it seemed as if any offense the Aggies could muster were undone by timely double plays by the Ducks' defense. Poor base defense on the part of the Aggies allowed Oregon to score runs in the second, third and sixth innings to take an 8-4 lead into the seventh.

There, six walks and a hit-by-pitch resulted in five runs for the Aggies, leading Kent to mash a grand slam for his second hit of the inning. Oregon never truly threatened again, and Texas A&M rode that momentum throughout the remainder of the game.

9:35 p.m.: Kaeden Kent hits a grand slam to right field, and it's a nine-run inning for the Aggies. Kent's home run was just the second hit of the inning. All of a sudden, the Aggies look likely to sweep the Ducks.

9:31 p.m.: Jaxon Jordan comes in and walks Ali Camarillo on five pitches. The Aggies are now ahead 9-8. That's six walks this inning and two hitters in a row.

9:26 p.m.: Another bases-loaded walk, and Texas A&M ties it with LaViolette! Oregon manager Mark Wasikowski has seen enough and pulls Moore out.

9:21 p.m.: Moore hits Burton in the shoulder for the sixth walk of the inning, and that'll bring in another run. All three runs this inning have been the result of walks or hit by pitch.

9:19 p.m.: Schott is walked, fourth of the inning, and that's another run in for the Aggies! Burton's up next in the order, and a well-placed hit could set off an explosion of bubbles at Blue Bell Park.

9 p.m.: Great fielding play and throw by Ali Camarillo at shortstop to retire Walsh to end the inning. Oregon adds a run and is back up by four.

8:59 p.m.: Anon Aroz is hit by a pitch. Jacob Walsh is up with runners on first and second, two outs.

8:46 p.m.: Caden Sorrell gets under this one and hits it off the end of the bat for a flyout to right field to end the inning.

8:43 p.m.: Ted Burton grounds into a 5-4-3 double play. That's the third double play grounded into by the Aggies. Just bad luck, as the ball went 99 miles per hour off the bat.

8:42 p.m.: Hayden Schott leads off the top of the sixth inning with a single past the diving shortstop. He has three hits today and is 6 for 8 on the series.

Bottom of the fifth inning: Oregon 7, Texas A&M 4

8:39 p.m.: Oregon centerfielder and football linebacker Bryce Boettcher flies out to right field to end the inning. The Aggies have gone two straight innings without allowing a run.

8:38 p.m.: Carter Garate grounds out to the pitcher and Molony advances to second. Two outs, runner on second.

8:16 p.m.: Drew Smith is caught looking at a backdoor breaking ball for the first out of the inning. Beautifully located pitch that just found the zone and got Smith.

8:10 p.m.: Left-hander Kaiden Wilson enters for Texas A&M. Wilson has a 10.80 ERA in 6.2 innings this season. He has struck out 12 but walked five and allowed two home runs.

Bottom of the third inning: Oregon 7, Texas A&M 2

7:45 p.m.: Maddox Malony flies out for the second out, but Carter Garate drives in Walsh to make it a 7-2 lead for Oregon. This is getting out of hand for the Aggies.

7:24 p.m.: Chestnut walks to start the inning.

Bottom of the first inning: Oregon 4, Texas A&M 1

7:06 p.m.: Rudis records a strikeout and induces a ground ball out to end the inning for the Ducks. Oregon has a 4-1 lead after one inning.

7:01 p.m.: Anon Aroz with an opposite-field home run and it's 4-1 Oregon. That's back-to-back-to-back to home runs for the Ducks, including two in a row against Rudis.

7:00 p.m.: Drew Smith greets Rudis with a solo home run to left field to extend the Oregon lead to 3-1. That's back-to-back home runs. A great start for the Aggies has quickly turned sour.

6:55 p.m.:  Brad Rudis will take over on the bump for the Aggies. Rudis has a 1.82 ERA in 34.2 innings for Texas A&M this season. His season-high for an outing is 3.0 innings, so the Aggies will rely heavily on the bullpen now. The replay does not clearly show what happened to Sdao. But he asks for the dugout to come take him out.

6:53 p.m.: Dominic Hellman lines a 1-2 hanging pitch to left field for a single. The ball was scorched off the bat. Chase Meggers follows that up with a two-run home run on the first pitch to right field. Sdao is coming out of the game after that.

6:52 p.m.: After nearly being picked off on a good move by Shade Sdao, Neville is retired on a 1-3-1 pickoff, as he tried to move too fast off first base before the pitch.

6:42 p.m.: Gavin Grahovac goes down swinging on a 1-2 fastball for the second out of the inning. Appel steals second base on the first pitch, his 15th steal of the season.

6:40 p.m.:  Jace LaViolette pops out to foul territory by first base for the first out of the inning.
