From frigid park, park, Nathan Hall He was the only person who felt the heat.
South Carolina’s red hot host continued to burn its start of the season with four strokes day, booking the afternoon with clutch strikes to help South Carolina take care of Queens 7-2 in his first game in the middle of the week of the season.
“If you go out on the field is a good day,” Paul Manners He said. “Whether it’s cold, hot, windy, wet, dry, it doesn’t matter. You prepare them for days like this, but today it was a test. I don’t care how much you get it out of your mind. It was cold, it was wet, it was windy. These were as difficult for the conditions as you could play.
“I thought they did it tonight. I really think we played a solid game. ”
The first temperature of the step was 36 degrees, and the wind, who sank in the 20s, before the night ended, clarifying from the jump, this would not be a day for crimes. With the wind beating from the central field, the pillars of the flag were smoothed to the home slab and a light but constant rain that falls all night, it was a more battle with the production tracks than anything.
South Carolina (5-0) discarded 11 hits, but only two additional base hits.
One of them led from the bottom of the first when Hall lifted where yesterday stopped with a double in the right field. He advanced in third place of grounding and scored Ethan Petri RBI single, 1-0 lead that remained untouched to the sixth Inning.
“I’m just trying to keep the same thing the same thing,” Hall said. “To deal with my routine and do my best to help the team win.”
Jackson Susi and Ryder Garino The game began with combined six submissions, allowing only two hits between them. Soucie’s Gamecock’s debut turned off almost without a hanger, with just a soft double and a walk. The transfer of the left hand Juco did not throw a strong-fast quick ball went about 90 miles / but he found his leaks well and kept the hits of Queens (2-2).
Garino added to his impressive work last Saturday with five more penalties, giving him nine strokes against just one walk and one hit, allowed in the first five passes by his collegial career.
“I feel good,” Garino said. “Everything I worked with coach Rooney, coach manneri, all our coaches, all our Bulp is feeling well and we are ready to continue the season.”
A Kennedy Jones Hustle Double started twice rally in the sixth Innning, with a Henry Kachmar victim of a fly and a Kj scobey RBI grounding extending the front to three. But as was the case in three of the five victories this season, there was a blow. Queens placed two runs on the board through the eighth, scoring in two free passes from Ashton Crowter To make a game with one running.
Cold weather, an almost empty stadium and a sudden threatening situation. But just like yesterday in yesterday, the crime of South Carolina woke up. Gamecocks poured four tracks at three hits in the eighth Inning to secure the victory, a key to RBI singles from Hall and Petri.
“The more you win these close games when you are tested, the more your confidence grows,” Manners said. “You need to have confidence to get started, but the more you do it, the more your confidence increases and you begin to believe when you reach the end of the games you will find a way to do it. ”
South Carolina will open its second series of the season on Friday with the first pitch at 16:00 against Milwaukee.
