February 22 at McKethan Stadium, Gainesville, FL
SEC Network
The Gators had a combined no-hitter going through 6 2/3 innings before Brandon Lopez Carleverett'd with two outs in the seventh and broke it up. Dave Dunning stated and went five no-hit innings to pick up the win and four pitchers joined him to only allow three singles as Florida took the three-game series.
Either Gators' coach Kevin O'Sullivan's nickname is "Sully" or the SEC Network announcers had the wrong guy all day.
Another great Baseball Phrase from this one:
"Gap integrity"
Game 7 - Northeastern at South Carolina
February 22 at Carolina Stadium in Columbia, SC
SEC Network
The Gamecocks used a five-run fifth (freshman Alex Destino's three-run home run was the big hit) to finish off the sweep and win their sixth straight with a 6-4 victory.
Couple quick notes:
* SEC Network color man Trey Dyson said "situational hitting" eight times during the eighth and ninth innings alone. What is situational hitting and does it need to be pointed out? Every time a pitch is thrown in a baseball game a situation is occurring.
A few examples:
- Man at second, nobody out: situation.
- Runner at first is forced at second on a slow ground ball to shortstop? That was also a situation. Now there's a new runner at first and he's part of a new situation.
- Bases loaded, two outs, bottom of the eighth, cotton candy vendor shouts "cotton candy here!", Taylor (age 6) in section 117 isn't allowed to have a bag because he's already had two bags plus a hot dog and a souvenir soda and Dippin' Dots:
SITUATION.
* The South Carolina logo stinks
