Ole Miss baseball beat No. 17 Southern Miss in Pearl by a score of 6-5 after 12 innings Tuesday night.
The Rebels entered the match determined to overcome a tough weekend after getting swept by Mississippi State in three games. Freshman pitcher Greer Holston started on the mound for the Rebels and lasted four innings before the Rebels’ head coach, Mike Bianco, pulled the plug. During his shift, Holston let up four hits, four runs and had two walks. He has yet to receive a win in his inaugural season as a pitcher for the Rebels.
The Golden Eagles jumped on the Ole Miss defense early and often.
