South Carolina at Auburn game 2 recap: Gamecocks lose to Tigers 8-6, drop series

South Carolina had another disappointing finish to a game on Saturday, rallying midway through the game against Auburn only to blow a lead and end up losing 8-6.

The Tigers took a 1-0 lead in the second inning with help from an error, and another mistake by the Gamecocks helped Auburn go up 2-0 in the next inning. They then went up 3-0 in the fifth on a Brooks Carlson single. USC ended the shutout and tied the game in the sixth inning. Brandt Belk walked to start things off, Josiah Sightler got hit by a pitch with one out, and then Braylen Wimmer went yard for three runs with two outs, making it a 3-3 game.
