STATESBORO, GA. –Four Georgia Southern pitchers combined to toss a four-hitter as the Eagles defeated second-ranked Georgia 6-1 Wednesday in front of a crowd of 3,286 at J.I. Clements Stadium.
The Eagles (11-5) went on top 1-0 in the second and had a chance for more. Austin Thompson led off the frame with a triple and scored on a groundout by Christian Avant. A couple of Bulldog miscues and a walk loaded the bases, and then Georgia turned an inning-ending double play. In the third, the Eagles made it 2-0 on a two-out single by Thompson. Georgia Southern extended its lead to 6-0 with a four-run outburst in the fourth.
