Eight runs on 14 hits for Ole Miss in an 8-2 win Saturday night. Home runs by Matt Smith and Matt Snyder and a big night from Tim Ferguson.
Starting pitcher Phillip Irwin went only 2 1-3 innings, and that my be a spot that needs to be addressed for the postseason rotation.
Closer Jake Morgan threw an easy ninth last night, his only inning of the series, so he's fresh to back up Scott Bittle as the Rebels go for the sweep today. Game time is 1 p.m.
This is a much different scene from last year when the Rebels didn't qualify for Hoover till the last day of the regular season. Needed that guy with a sore bicep to get it done then.
