STATESBORO - The 20th-ranked Georgia baseball team downed Georgia Southern 5-1 Wednesday night at J.I. Clements Stadium to even up the season series at 1-1. The Eagles won convincingly Tuesday night in North Augusta, South Carolina, 13-5, and the two teams will wrap up the series on March 29 in Athens.
The Bulldogs plated a run in the first inning, but the Eagles clawed right back into it when Jason Swan scored on a passed ball in the bottom of frame. That would be the only run for the Eagles and the Bulldogs plated four runs in the third inning to pull away.
