The Furman series was supposed to be an opportunity for Ole Miss to break out of worrisome hitting slump in the final weekend before SEC play. But while the Rebels were able to get off their losing skid with a three-game shutout, they don't seem to be any nearer to turning things around at the plate.
The five runs Ole Miss put up on Saturday was its highest scoring output in the last eight games, but that came on just three hits. The nine hits on Sunday were also a high-water mark during that span, but every one of them were singles and only four of them occurred in the same inning.
