Georgia vs. South Carolina Baseball Prediction

These teams have proven that they can score, combining for 24 runs on Thursday in the series opener. South Carolina showcased a lack of control on the mound, as it had 10 walks while pitching and had to use a few more guys than expected.

Georgia has a slight advantage on the mound, with Leighton Finley coming off a season-high 11 strikeouts last time out, so he has some confidence heading into this game. With these teams locked in the standings with one another, this should be a close contest.

The Bulldogs had bad game fielding as they committed three errors, which extended innings and showcased how much larger of a difference there would have been with a more competent effort. All in all, go with the Georgia Bulldogs to pull off the win for a second consecutive day.
