South Carolina's Baseball team looks to end their six-game SEC losing streak and get some revenge against the Alabama Crimson Tide in Hoover.
in a single-elimination first-round matchup. The two teams met in the regular season in Tuscaloosa, with the Tide getting the better of the Gamecocks and winning the series two games to one.
What hurt Carolina in their regular season series against Alabama was their inability to bring baserunners home to bounce back after he gave up five earned runs in two and two-thirds innings in his outing against the Crimson Tide back on March 29th. If Gamecock fans want a reference to gauge what South Carolina needs to do to win tomorrow, think of this game like the Georgia series. Ifallows Alabama, who ranks second in the SEC in hits and has struck out the least amount in league play, to put the ball all over the yard, the Gamecocks will have to win a shootout. Much like the Bulldogs, the Crimson Tide doesn't excel on the mound and 4th-most hits allowed in SEC play), so the possibility of this happening is higher than normal.
The last thing to note is the location of this contest. No, I'm not talking about Carolina's putrid history when the SEC Tournament is in Hoover; I'm talking about the actual location. This game, being in Hoover, AL, gives Alabama an automatic advantage, as their fans will likely show up in droves compared to the Gamecocks, making the matchup feel more like a road game for Kingston's team.
