South Carolina has had some tough luck this year no doubt, but the stats show that it isn’t just bad luck or a pitch here or there that is costing the Gamecocks.
With three games remaining, USC is 10th in the SEC with a 12-15 record, and despite being close to winning some big series this season, that’s about where the Gamecocks belong.
South Carolina hasn’t consistently done the little things necessary to win close games. Things such as getting down a sacrifice bunt, scoring from third with less than two outs or putting together a two-out rally.
