COLUMBIA â Andrew Eyster had a pair of home runs and drove in four but Mississippi State scored its nine runs in the first five innings on its way to a 9-6 win over the University of South Carolina baseball team Saturday afternoon (May 8) at Founders Park.
The Bulldogs put up nine runs with the help of home runs from Rowdy Jordan, Logan Tanner and Luke Hancock. Carolina started to chip away at the Bulldog lead with an Eyster home run in the fourth. Wes Clarke belted his 18th home run of the season in the sixth, a two-run shot. Eyster then came back in the seventh and hit a three-run home run to right, making it 9-6.
