Ole Miss baseball lost its second-straight non-conference game and eighth of the season on Wednesday night as the Rebels fell to Southern Miss in Hattiesburg 5-3.
The Rebel bats were silenced as the Golden Eagles sent 7 different arms to the hill in the contest. The win was credited to J.C. Keys of USM who went 2.2 innings and struck out six of the men he faced. The Rebels’ loss also snapped a five-game winning streak over the Golden Eagles dating back to 2017.
Ole Miss mustered a mere 5 hits but left 9 men on base, a stat that represents ample opportunity to have reversed their fortunes in the contest.
