South Carolina baseball coach Mark Kingston got exactly what he was looking for from four pitchers as the Gamecocks prepare for this weekend’s showdown three-game showdown with Clemson.
It wasn’t perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but it was good enough for a 3-1 victory over Appalachian State to run South Carolina’s winning streak to seven games.
John Gilreath started and allowed one run on three hits in two innings. Parker Coyne followed with Cam Tringali, Wesley Sweatt and Brett Kerry finishing it out without allowing a run over the final eight innings.
Tringali, Sweatt and Kerry were especially effective.
