South Carolina baseball started it’s home SEC series against Florida off with a 9-5 loss on Friday night. The game went into the early hours of Saturday morning after a weather delay halted the game early. Although South Carolina’s pitching staff was able to strikeout Florida batters 10 times, the Gators used a big fifth inning to get the win.

This is the third and final game of the three-game series as the Crimson Tide run-ruled the Gamecocks 13-1 in five innings on Thursday evening and South Carolina silenced Alabama 3-1 on Friday night and Saturday morning (rain and lightning postponed the game in the third inning last night).
