GAMEDAY THREAD  Carolina vs Vanderbilt GAME 1  **Friday, May 03, at 7:00 p.m. ET**

Worst in years. Hate to say it and see it. 

 
Vanderbilt leads 8-5. Still 1 out. Harley hasn't retired a batter yet.

Now he does: Harley strikes out the final 2 batters of the inning. So between two Gamecock pitchers, Vanderbilt had a six-batter run of 3 singles, a HBP, a double, and a homerun. Let's see if our batters still have some fight in them....

8-5 Vanderbilt, bottom 4th.....

 
8-5 Vanderbilt, Bottom 4th:

Noah Campbell walks to lead off. After Allen strikes out, Hopkins doubles, Campbell stops at 3B....

Berryhill strikes out for Out #2.

OLSON HOMERS TO TIE THE GAME 8-8!!!! We're still in this fight!! :animated-smileys-sport-032:

8-8 Tie Game, Bottom 4th, 2 outs:

Eyster is HBP, and this is scary. Not for Eyster, but the ball grazed off of him, and hits the home plate umpire somewhere in the face, and he drops to the ground. Looks like the ball might have hit him in the neck/shoulder area, under his facemask. Game is stopped while he is being checked out. Looks like he will continue in the game...

Vandy goes to the bullpen. 2 outs and Eyster on 1B. The Vanderbilt pitcher threw 97 pitches in 3.2 innings....

Callil strikes out to end the inning. Still all tied, heading to the 5th.....

Not a good start for Harley, as he walks the first 2 batters, with the top of the Vandy lineup up next.

Coach Meade comes out to talk to Dylan, he leaves him in. Dylan has thrown 47 pitches....

Ughhh......Harley hits the batter to load the bases. 0 outs.....

Now Cole Ganopolous will come in. A very tough, no-win position for him to be in.....

Cole's 1st pitch is wild to the backstop, and a run scores. 9-8 Vanderbilt.....

Top 7th, Vanderbilt leads 18-8, with 1 out and bases loaded. Parker Coyne - who has struggled perhaps more than any other Gamecock pitcher this season not dealing with an injury - takes the mound......

...and gives up a grand slam homerun. 22-8......

Gamecocks lose the opening game of the series with Vanderbilt, 22-11. Gamecock hitters struck out 16 times, Gamecocks pitchers have walked 11 Vanderbilt batters. Pretty much tells the story tonight......
