The South Carolina Gamecocks are going for the series win against the Oklahoma Sooners. After dropping the first game on Friday, the South Carolina Gamecocks bounced back on Saturday with a big offensive showing to tie the series at 1-1 vs Oklahoma.

In Saturday’s 11-5 win, starter Jake McCoy only allowed four runs, but he gave up nine hits, three walks and had a runner on base in all but one inning. His replacement, Tyler Pitzer, walked five batters in his first three innings and nearly drove his head coach mad.

That first inning outburst helped Oklahoma starter Kyson Witherspoon, though the Gamecocks chased him out of the game in the sixth inning. The Sooners right-hander is the 26th-ranked draft prospect for 2025 by MLB.com and the top-ranked junior pitcher in the SEC.
