Huge game from Webb and great win by the Gamecocks! After that uncharacteristic start to the game last night by Schmidt that allowed 4 1st-inning runs by the Commodores, the Gamecocks have out-scored them 7-2 since.

Lets hope that continues tomorrow. One good thing is that with Clarke's 8-inning complete game last night, and Webb going 8 innings tonight, needing only the 1-nning of 16 pitches from Reagan, our bullpen will be as healthy as a bullpen can be for tomorrow. Reagan can make another appearance tomorrow if need-be.

Another great outing from Adam Hill would be fantastic, but we'll have the arms ready to go if we need them. Lets get the series to go 8-1 through the 1st 3 SEC series, something I don't think even the most optimistic of fans imagined happening...

Webb really frustrated the Dores last night ... you could see it in their faces and body language. I think the meat of their order went 0-fer, six or seven strickouts from them alone. Eleven total, from Webb alone, for the game if I am not mistaken ... not counting Reagan's.

The Yardcocks are playing good ball right now. I was a little worried about them bouncing back after losing two in a row, especially given the tough extra inning loss to CofC and then the opener to Vandy on the road ... but this team is showing some intestinal fortitude that is paramount to championship caliber teams.

How they will handle their inevitable slump is yet to be seen but, for now at least, we gotta love the cut of this team's jib ... they are fun to watch.

Taking the rubber game today in Nashville would be huge - 3PM on the SEC Network. I'm shuffling my honey-do list stuff around today just so my Son and I can sit down and watch the game this afternoon.
