OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) – Rhiannon Kliesing singled home the decisive run in the seventh inning and Texas A&M took advantage of a bizarre error after a stolen base to beat Louisiana-Lafayette 2-1 Friday night at the Women’s College World Series.

Jami Lobpries, a senior from Wharton, stole second and then alertly moved to third when shortstop Brooke Brodhead missed pitcher Ashley Brignac with her throw back to the pitcher’s circle and the ball bounded toward the Lafayette dugout.

Kliesing then lined a single to center that likely wouldn’t have been enough to score Lobpries from second.

Lobpries also drove in the first run for the fifth-seeded Aggies (56-7) with a sacrifice fly in the fourth inning.
