SEC Baseball Reaction: Tennessee's Liam Doyle Dominates, Georgia Sweeps, More

  • Summary

  • Chris Lee, Alfred Ezman and Graham Doty talk SEC baseball results from Friday night as starting pitching again took center stage. Topics include:

    • Tennessee’s Liam Doyle has his second-straight dominant start, striking out 14 hitters over 5 1/3 innings, while Tanner Franklin goes the rest of the way and whiffs six in the Vols' 5-1 victory over Samford.

    • LSU led start to finish in a 4-2 win over Nebraska-Omaha has Kade Anderson, Connor Benge, Mavrick Rizy and Casan Evans combine to strike out 14.

    • Texas A&M’s Ryan Prager threw five shutout innings and Gavin Grahovac homered in a 6-1 victory over Cal Poly.

    • Arkansas fell 3-2 to Kansas State for its first loss. The Razorbacks got solo homers from the Aloy brothers but just three strikeouts from its pitching staff.

    • Alabama got an impressive 9-2 win over Coastal Carolina in Jacksonville despite getting three (3!) hits, only one of which scored a run. Instead, the Crimson Tide took 12 walks and were plunked three times. Zane Adams threw 4 1/3 innings of one-run ball, fanning six in his start.

    • Georgia sweeps a doubleheader with 9-3 and 15-1 victories over Illinois-Chicago. Leighton Finley throws five shutout innings in the second game to highlight the Bulldogs' mound work.

    • Vanderbilt beat St. Mary’s, 11-4, with Jonathan Vastine contributing a home run and RJ Austin, a pair of triples. But the biggest story was the season debuts of infielders Brodie Johnston and Mike Mancini, two likely starters for the Commodores.

    • Bobby Boser hit his first homer as a Gator, and Florida routed Dayton, 13-1, thanks to a scoreless, four-inning start from Liam Peterson.

    • Oklahoma edges Minnesota, 3-2, thanks to Kyson Witherspoon’s seven-inning, one-run, 12-strikeout day.

    • Ole Miss’s Luke Hill had two more hits and swiped two bases while Hunter Elliott fanned 10 in six innings in an 8-0 win over Eastern Kentucky.

    • Mississippi State had only four hits and trailed late but rallied with three eighth-inning runs keyed by Noah Sulivan’s two-RBI double. Pico Kohn struck out 11 and allowed only one run in 6 1/3 innings.

    • Kentucky went to Nashville and earned a 2-1 win at Belmont. Starter Nic McCay went six shutout innings and struck out seven.

    • Auburn topped Wright State, 11-0. Prized recruit Bub Terrell hit his first collegiate home run and LSU transfer Sam Dutton fired 5 2/3, seven-strikeout innings in his start.

    • South Carolina rallied from an early deficit to beat Milwaukee, 5-2. JUCO transfer Jase Woita homered and sophomore Tyler Pitzer threw four innings of eight-strikeout baseball in relief.

    • Texas got just six hits against Dartmouth but managed a 4-3 win thanks to 11 strikeouts between Jared Spencer, Ruger Riojas and Thomas Burns.

    • Missouri edged Florida A&M, 6-5. The Tigers' bullpen hurled four scoreless innings and Gehrig Goldbeck rapped out three hits.
