@JoseMata_Jr Unfortunately, there isn’t. However, I can give you the most important stat from the Gamecocks’ 2010 season Jose!
NCAA Championship Rings: 1

Sometimes baseball can be a cruel sport. Just ask Brady Allen about his 111mph line drive that turned into a lineout to the shortstop. This ball was good for an xAVG of .650, but he had nothing to show for it!

Baseball, physics and math...
Yum! 🤤

Brennan Milone broke the game wide open for the Black Squad with this 440 foot blast!

The ball was flying out of Founders Park yesterday! Take a look at the numbers from this Brandon Fields BOMB:

[USC Baseball Analytics @analytics_usc]

Josiah Sightler had the highest exit velocity of the day, a 107 mph laser beam that got out of founders park in 4.5 seconds!

Fun fact: he also sat 92mph in a scoreless third inning.

[USC Baseball Analytics @analytics_usc]

Thomas Farr brought the 🔥 and the 🔄 tonight! His fastball maxed out at 96.8 mph, and he also threw a slider with a spin rate over 2800 rpms.

What better day to test out our new and upgraded Trackman system than our annual scout day! Be on the look out later for some of today’s top performers!

[South Carolina Baseball @GamecockBSB]

We would have been honoring our seniors this weekend at Founders Park, so we wanted to thank them this week on social media!

First up, our senior managers and support staff @thewrightway3, @brown_chipper, @samj15 and @b6brock!!

That ball by George Callil was absolutely mashed.

We’ll also be tweeting out the Oof of the Day. This award goes to the batter who hit a ball with the highest xAVG, but still got out. Tonight, this award goes to @wesesame , with a lineout at 103mph/16 degrees, good for an xAVG of .750 #oof

Bryant Bowen - 106.5
Wes Clarke - 105.1
Jeff Heinrich - 103.7
Andrew Eyster - 103.6

This poor beverage wore a foul ball 107 mph off the bat

Bryant Bowen just destroyed someone’s beer in foul territory.
