Alford fouls off the first pitch he sees from Harrison and we're underway.

[Jeff Howe]

Slick play by Flores to retire Alford in 6-3 fashion on a ground ball.

Burnett lines out into the shift with Mendoza making the catch in shallow right.

[Jeff Howe]

Flores' throw on a ground ball by Zaborowski is too low. Schuessler can't dig it out and Zaborowski is on base with an error charged to Flores.

[Jeff Howe]

Nolan McCarthy, who homered last night, just doubled into the right-field corner. Zaborowski is called safe on the play at the plate, but they're reviewing it now.

[Jeff Howe]

FWIW, Adrian Rodriguez isn't listed on the injury report for today's game. The only Texas player listed on the conference report is Max Belyeu (thumb).

[Jeff Howe]

The call stands. Zaborowski is safe and Georgia has the early lead, 1-0.

Is it me or do these bats look like bowling pins? 

[Jeff Howe]

You've got to get your outs on time.

[CJ Vogel]

Errors are no good. 

[Jeff Howe]

Harrison rings up Charlie Jones on strikes to get out of the inning. UGA leaves a runner stranded in scoring position, but McCarthy's RBI double gives the Bulldogs the early lead.
