The teams split a doubleheader on Saturday. Ole Miss won game one on Saturday, 10-8. The Rebels rallied to earn the win in the first game. Georgia jumped out to an 8-0 lead in the first three and a half innings.

Ole Miss had big innings in the bottom of the fourth and in the bottom of the eighth that accounted for nine of their 10 runs.

Georgia started Joey Volchko on the mound. He struck out 10 Rebels in 5.2 innings and allowed four earned runs, but got a no-decision. The second game of the day on Saturday was also a thriller.

Georgia earned a 9-7 win in 14 innings. Tre Phelps’ solo home run put Georgia on top in the top of the 14th inning. The Bulldogs added a second run later in the inning with a bases-loaded walk from Brennan Hudson.
