While the Gators secured the series victory over South Carolina by hammering the Gamecocks on Thursday and Friday, Saturday’s regular season finale was still an extremely important game for them.
A win would’ve given them a winning record in SEC play and would’ve possibly given them a shot at playing an NCAA Regional at home.
Unfortunately for UF, their offense chose a really bad time to fall asleep. South Carolina’s four pitchers combined to issue nine walks, but the Gators could only generate three hits in their 4-1 loss in a game that featured a two-hour-and-35-minute weather delay in the seventh inning.
