South Carolina rallies from six runs down to beat LSU, sweeps No. 19 Tigers

After two blowout victories over LSU to start the weekend, South Carolina baseball switched things up a bit Sunday, overcoming a six-run deficit for its biggest come-from-behind win of the season, 8-6.

For the first half of the afternoon at Founders Park, it seemed as though the Gamecocks (23-17, 9-9 SEC) were a completely different team than the one that dominated LSU (24-17, 9-9) with excellent starting pitching and an unrelenting offensive attack on Friday and Saturday. USC was scoreless through five innings, while sophomore righty Cody Morris labored through 4 1/3 innings.

The Tigers, meanwhile, raced to a 6-0 lead thanks to a three-run home run by freshman Daniel Cabrera in the third inning and two doubles, two singles and a wild pitch in the fifth, including an RBI double for Cabrera.
