Weil HOOVER, AL - The Tigers return to play in the semi-finals of the SEC Tournament against South Carolina on Saturday as they look to advance to the SEC Championship game, and that they did with another incredible comeback! Steven Milam hit a two run, walk off home run in the bottom of the tenth inning for a 12-11 victory! South Carolina took the early lead as they platted a run in the top of the second inning. 1-0 Gamecocks as we headed to the bottom of the frame. The Gamecocks extended their lead in the top if the third, when Dalton Reeves hit a three run homer off of Aiden Moffett who had just replaced starter Javen Coleman on the bump. 4-0 Cocks as we headed to the fourth inning. The South Carolina bats continued to inflict damage in the top of the fourth. The Gamecocks scored two more runs, chasing Moffett who was replaced by DJ Premeaux. South Carolina was able to plate two more runs before Premeaux was able to get the Tigers back into the dug out. 8-0 Gamecocks as the game headed to the bottom of the frame. LSU refused to roll over and quit. Steven Milam started things off with a double to right filed. After Josh Brown would fly out, Ashton Larson would draw a base on balls. Milazzo popped out for the second out of the inning setting up Michael Braswell III, who singled to left field bringing home Milam. Tommy White was then walked to load the bases. Jared Jones stepped to the plate and was walked to bring home a run, keeping the bases loaded. Josh Pearson then came up with a huge hit as he singled up the middle, scoring Braswell and White and advancing Jones to third base. Hayden Travinski came up with a single down the left field line, scoring Jones and Pearson. The inning came to a close with LSU now only trailing, 8-6. South Carolina was able to extend their lead in the top of the sixth, scoring two more runs. 10-6, Gamecocks as we headed to the bottom of the sixth. Jared Jones led off the bottom of the sixth with a solo homer, cutting the deficit to 10-7. The Tigers inched closer to South Carolina in the top of the seventh. Josh Brown got things going with a single and was able to advance all the way to third base on a bad throwing error. Ashton Larson then flied out to center field to bring Brown home. Michael Braswell III stepped to the plate and hit a solo home run over the left center field wall against his former team. As the contest headed to the eighth inning, the score stood at 10-9, Gamecocks. We headed to the bottom of the ninth with the Tigers still trailing 10-9. Last chance for LSU. Do the Tigers have it in them? Ethan Frey would lead off pinch hitting for Larson. Frey would get things started with a double down the left field line. Paxton Kling entered the game to pinch run for Frey. Milazzo layed down a great bunt and was safe due to a throwing error by the third baseman. The throwing error allowed Kling to come around and score to tie the game at 10-10. LSU had a chance to take the win, but left runners on second and third. We headed to extra innings with the score all even at 10-10. In the top of the tenth, with two outs and runners on the corners, South Carolina attempted to steal home. Griffin Herring at the last minute fired the ball to Brady Neal who applied the tag for the final out. A controversial discussion about the play got LSU Head Coach Jay Johnson tossed out of the contest. The umpires decided to call the runner safe, who was tagged out by a mile on a ridiculous call, calling catcher's interference on LSU catcher Brady Neal and a balk on Griffin Herring. One of the worse calls I've EVER seen in a baseball game. The horrible call allowed South Carolina to regain the lead, 11-10. Hayden Travinski started the bottom on the tenth with a lead off walk. Steven Milam then stepped to the plate and launched a two run, walk off home run over the left center field wall. TIGERS WIN! 12-11! John 14:6 - "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
