Heavy rain in Athens, Georgia on Friday led to Georgia’s four-game series with Garner-Webb being altered to a quicker three-game series. Georgia won game one of Saturday’s doubleheader on a walk-off home run from utility infielder Josh McAllister and then followed up on that momentum to win game two in pitcher Ryan Webb’s first start of the season. It took until Sunday for Georgia’s offense to fully breakout though.
Georgia beat Gardner-Webb 17-3 to sweep the three-game set at Foley Field. 17 runs became a season-high for the home Bulldogs, who homered four times and scored more runs on Sunday than both of Saturday’s games combined, where they scored eight runs.
