South Carolina fell behind and was never able to catch up to LSU in Wednesday’s SEC Tournament game, losing 10-3 and putting themselves in danger of being eliminated.
The game was scoreless until the second, when the Tigers took a 2-0 lead on a homer by Brayden Jobert. The score held until the fifth, when Gamecocks ended the shutout with a solo shot by Ethan Petry that made it 2-1. LSU answered in the bottom of the inning, scoring four runs on a pair of bases-loaded walks and a couple of sac flies, making the score 6-1.
USC’s final two runs of the game came in the next inning.
