Bulldogs Play Host To PC Tuesday

February 27, 2023 | Baseball

ATHENS-----Georgia continues a nine-game homestand on Tuesday when Presbyterian (5-2) visits Foley Field. First pitch will be at 4:02 p.m. (SECN+).
 
Recently, the Bulldogs claimed a four-game series over Princeton, winning three out of four. The Tigers avoided a sweep with a 12-11 comeback this past Sunday. The Blue Hose are riding a four-game winning streak after dropping their season-opening series to Georgetown 2-1. This past weekend, they posted home wins over Toledo in 10 innings, Northwestern and Michigan State. 
 
Both teams will start freshmen pitchers. Right-hander Matthew Hoskins makes his debut while PC counters with left-hander Mason McDaniel (1-0, 2.70 ERA). Hoskins, a 6-2, 222-pound graduate of Peachtree Ridge High School, missed the first two weeks of the season due to an illness.  
 
         Series History: Georgia holds a 19-4 edge in the series history with the Blue Hose. PC won the first four meetings coming in 1943 while the Bulldogs have won 19 in a row in Athens including an 18-3 rout last season. Georgia collected 15 hits against PC last year as Parks Harber led the way, going 3-for-4 with three RBI and finished a single shy of the cycle.
 
         Princeton Series Review: Georgia eventually got its four-game series in with the Tigers, outscoring them 44-24. Friday's action was suspended in the sixth inning due to rain. On Saturday, Georgia picked up a pair of wins and then the teams split a doubleheader on Sunday. The Bulldogs tallied 46 hits including 17 for extra bases (eight home runs). Princeton hit only .233 but did club 10 home runs (nine solo and one three-run shot). Georgia's leading hitters in the series were redshirt-freshman OF Charlie Condon (.636-1-6) and graduate DH Connor Tate (.615-1-7).
         Georgia got tremendous starts from junior left-handers Jaden Woods (4.2IP, 1H, 0R, 1BB, 11K) and Liam Sullivan (7IP, 0H, 0R, 2BB, 11K) in the first two games. Sullivan earned SEC Co-Pitcher of the Week honors as well as one of nine pitchers to be named a National Player of the Week by Collegiate Baseball newspaper. Graduate Dalton Rhadans was the team's top reliever, notching a save after providing three innings with three strikeouts in the 12-7 win.
         Georgia's defense was much better compared to Opening Weekend. Against Princeton, the team fielded .985 with only a pair of miscues after making five in the Jacksonville State series. 
 
         Streaks: Graduate Connor Tate and junior Parks Harber have hit safely in all seven games this season while redshirt freshman Charlie Condon has a six-game streak. In fact, Tate has a career-best 12-game streak dating back to last year while Harber's streak is at nine games, two shy of his career long set in 2022.
         The Bulldogs have hit at least one home run in all seven games this year. Georgia is 3-0 when it hits one home run and 2-2 when it blasts two or more. The Bulldogs have hit 12 home runs but have allowed 14.                
 
         On Deck: Georgia's three-game set with rival Ga. Tech (7-0) begins Friday at Foley Field at 6 p.m. Saturday's contest will take place on Tech's campus at 2 p.m. Sunday's action will begin at 3 p.m. at Coolray Field, home of the Gwinnett Stripers, the Triple-A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves. Sunday's game with Tech is the annual Spring Baseball Classic to benefit Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. Georgia Tech has a pair of midweek games at home (Long Island, Kennesaw State) before coming to Athens.
