In what was a largely frustrating game, South Carolina finally got an SEC victory by rally in the late and extra innings to beat Mississippi State and avoid being swept for a second weekend in a row.
The Gamecocks took their first lead of the series in the second inning of the game, going up 2-0 after Josiah Sightler got hit by a pitch and David Mendham homered with two outs. The Bulldogs got on the board in the next inning, making the score 2-1 courtesy of a sac fly from Kamren James. MSU tied things up in the fifth on a solo shot by Tanner Allen, then took the lead in the next inning on a home run from Rowdey Jordan that made it a 3-2 game.
