The South Carolina baseball team secured a 7-1 victory over Georgia State in their final game before SEC play at Founders Park. While the score seemed typical for a midweek game, the in-game changes provided intrigue, with starting catcher Talmadge LeCroy exiting early and regular starter Matthew Becker pitching in relief. Coach Paul Mainieri confirmed the changes were to keep players sharp, but did not reveal if the starting rotation would remain the same for the weekend. Becker’s appearance raised questions as he may still be available for the upcoming games. Jarvis Evans Jr. delivered another solid performance on the mound, allowing only one run. The offense shined in a six-run third inning, led by Jordan Carrion’s three-run double. With a successful non-conference slate behind them, the team prepares for the tough SEC schedule, starting with a series against No. 12 Oklahoma. Mainieri emphasized the competitiveness of the SEC and the need for the team to bring their best to every game. Uncertainty looms over the pitching rotation for the crucial weekend series.
