Sanders going right after them in the first and they’re hammering him for it. 

 

[gamecock88]

4 hits in the first for Miss St.    A triple and a homer.   Not a great start but a long way to go.  

 

[gamecock88]

Wow.   They’re light years ahead of us right now.   They just keep coming with some very good hitting.   

 

[ConwayGamecock]

Mississippi State leads 6-1 in the top 5th inning. They are just too tough for us....

 

[gamecock88]

9-1

 

[ConwayGamecock]

11 strikeouts in 19 at-bats. No walks yet, so that's not a part of it. We can't even hit into outs today......

Showing some fight

The South Carolina Gamecocks made a run at the Mississippi State Bulldogs with 2 runs in the 6th inning and 3 runs in the 7th, but were just too deep in the hole and lose Game 2 and the series to the Bulldogs 9-6. Andrew Eyster led the way going 3 for 5 with 2 homeruns and 4 runs batted in. Wes Clarke went 1 for 4 with a 2-RBI home run, to fill out the scoring....
