No. 22 Florida (30-14/12-8 SEC) clinched its first series victory over South Carolina (27-17/9-11 SEC) since 2005 with an 8-3 victory on Saturday afternoon at McKethan Stadium. The Gators scored the go-ahead run on a throwing error in the sixth inning and added three insurance runs in the seventh and one in the eighth to defeat the Gamecocks in consecutive outings since March 26-27, 2005.
Seniors Avery Barnes (High Springs, Fla.) (3-for-4, two runs) and Brandon McArthur (Seffner, Fla.) (2-for-4, two RBI) and freshman Preston Tucker (Tampa, Fla.) (3-for-5, two RBI) spearheaded UF’s offense, which totaled 11 hits. Junior Tony Davis (Cooper City, Fla.) improved to 5-0 with two scoreless innings and junior Billy Bullock (Balm, Fla.) recorded the final five outs to nail down his seventh save.
