Chad Holbrook has repeatedly stated that South Carolina’s offense can’t force its pitching staff to be perfect, but poor situational hitting made it so that there was no margin for error for Adam Hill and company Saturday night.
USC stranded 10 runners as LSU evened the series at a game apiece with a 5-2 victory over the Gamecocks in Baton Rouge.
South Carolina (27-17, 11-12) left the bases loaded in the third and fourth innings and failed to score with a runner on third and less than two outs in all four of its opportunities on the night.
