The No. 5 Gators entered game two of the series with No. 25 South Carolina looking to regain the momentum they entered this weekend with and even up the series following the stunning 14-inning loss on Friday night.
Instead, they experienced a new form of frustration. In game one, they hit the ball well enough to win but had a disastrous night on the mound. On Saturday, the roles flipped. The pitchers performed well enough, but the offense couldn’t get much going. The result was a 4-1 loss to the Gamecocks. It marked the first time the Gamecocks (15-6, 3-2 SEC) had taken a series from Florida since 2011.
