End 2 -- 1-0 Gamecocks

Jay Brown fires it in and Roller takes, strike one. Two straight balls follow. Roller gets the next one but taps it to Scott Wingo, grab and throw, one down.
Brandon Henderson up. He goes 1-1, the last nearly screwing himself into the dirt. Hit the ball off his leg and went down hard but appears to be OK. He's back in and Henderson looks at two straight outside, both of which are called strikes. Two Ks for Brown, two outs in the inning.
Henderson didn't like that one and he's letting the umpire know about it -- he does have a legitimate gripe. Billy Godwin has to walk halfway home telling Henderson to keep a lid on it while he walks back to the dugout.
Dustin Harrington up and knocks the first pitch he sees to deep short. Bobby Haney goes extremely right to get it and does but it's too far for the throw, although he tries. Pirates have their first baserunner.
Devin Harris up. He works a 2-1, then slashes down the line. Andrew Crisp stabs and throws, in time, but the third-base ump ruled it foul. It was fair until it bounced just outside of the bag. Harris has a 2-2.
Ball three is low and the count is full. He knocks another clearly-foul ball to third and the count remains. Harris fouls another one to the right. Brown dials it up, BLOWS it past him and has his third K, inning over.
Brown good through two.
