Middle 3 -- 6-0 Gamecocks
posted by David Cloninger, 6/01/2009 06:42:00 PM
Nick Ebert up. He walked last time up. He works a 3-1, fouls off ball four, then takes the same pitch and walks for the second time. One on, one out.
Justin Dalles back up after grounding into an inning-ending out in the first. He works a 1-1 (those inside pitches are murder) but smokes the next pitch into the gap. It's shallow enough to keep each runner to one base but Dalles has another hit. Ebert reaches second and cuts the bag hard, realizes he has no chance for third, falls down and half-crawls, half-drags himself back to the bag. That was rather ugly.
Parker Bangs up and that's going to be it for Somers. Chris Heston, who started on Saturday and threw 78 pitches, relieves.
Heston threw a lot of pitches but was mauled for 10 hits and six runs by Binghamton. He has started 15 games this year, though, and was 7-0.
Heston throws a ball to Bangs, then a strike that is MASHED into the gap. That's going to be two bases and Ebert crosses the plate, 2-0 Gamecocks.
Andrew Crisp up with two in scoring position and one out. First-pitch swing and lined to left. Stephen Batts makes a nice running play to track it down in the corner but Dalles will have way too much room to score, 3-0 Gamecocks.
Man on second and two outs for Bobby Haney, who singled his first time up. He's down 1-2, fouls one off, then flares one over short. Haney continues his hot hitting and another run is in, 4-0 Gamecocks.
Scott Wingo stands in with Haney on first and two outs. OH MY GOD. Wingo swings and belts it to right. No one's going to catch it and IT IS GONE!!!!!!!! I know one message-board poster who's going to be mad. 6-0 Gamecocks.
That's it for Heston. Bailey Daniels relieving. He relieved on Saturday and won the Binghamton game.
Whit Merrifield flies out but Jay Brown has a comfortable lead.

DeAngelo Mack leads off, Patrick Somers still out there. He goes 2-1, then pops up in the infield. Easy out, one down.
