LIVE SCORE UPDATES: Arkansas vs. South Carolina Baseball | Whole Hog Sports

South Carolina 2, Arkansas 1 — Middle 6th Inning

Matthew Becker has retired all six batters he has faced. A great stop and throw by third baseman Talmadge LeCroy robbed Hudson White of a two-out single in the sixth.

South Carolina 2, Arkansas 1 — End 5th Inning

Parker Coil matched Matthew Becker’s perfect fifth with one of his own. Coil has retired five in a row since a bang-bang play at first gave the first batter he faced a single in the fourth.

South Carolina 2, Arkansas 1 — Middle 5th Inning

Lefty Matthew Becker, who was South Carolina’s Game 3 starter at Florida last weekend, worked a 1-2-3 fifth. That was the Razorbacks’ first inning without a base runner.

South Carolina 2, Arkansas 1 — End 4th Inning

After two more walks that brought his total to seven, Mason Molina was replaced by Parker Coil.

Coil allowed a one-out infield single to load the bases, but he stranded three. Cole Messina hit a line drive off of Coil, who had the presence of mind to throw home for a force out. The inning ended with a ground out to third base.

Both teams have stranded seven through four innings.

South Carolina is going to the bullpen in the fifth.

South Carolina 2, Arkansas 1 — Middle 4th Inning

Peyton Holt and Ross Lovich singled to lead off the fourth against Eli Jones. Holt advanced on a pair of fly out, including an RBI sac fly by Will Edmunson to right field.

It appeared Lovich made a mistake by not tagging on the sac fly that was caught by right fielder Ethan Petry running into the wall in foul ground. Had he tagged and advanced to second, he likely would have scored on Peyton Stovall’s two-out single.

The inning ended and two were stranded when Ben McLaughlin grounded out. The Razorbacks have stranded seven through four innings.

South Carolina 2, Arkansas 0 — End 3rd Inning

The Gamecocks had a two-out walk and single to put runners on the corners before Mason Molina delivered an inning-ending strikeout of Dalton Reeves.

Molina through 3 innings has allowed 2 hits and 5 walks and has 3 strikeouts. He has thrown 57 pitches (27 strikes).

South Carolina 2, Arkansas 0 — Middle 3rd Inning

The Razorbacks stranded two more in the third when Nolan Souza’s drive was caught on the run near the warning track in left-center field.

Ben McLaughlin hit a one-out single to center and Kendall Diggs drew a two-out walk. Arkansas’ offensive approach looks much better today but the Razorbacks have nothing to show for it thus far.

South Carolina 2, Arkansas 0 — End 2nd Inning

Back-to-back walks to lead off the second inning came back to bite Mason Molina when, following a sac bunt, he allowed a two-run single up the middle to Talmadge LeCroy.

Molina’s third walk of the inning and fourth of the game put two on with one out, but he struck out the final two batters of the inning to strand two. His command is not strong today.

Arkansas 0, South Carolina 0 — Middle 2nd Inning

Ross Lovich and Hudson White had consecutive two-out singles but were stranded when Will Edmunson grounded out to end the top of the second inning.

Arkansas 0, South Carolina 0 — End 1st Inning

Austin Brinling led off with a five-pitch walk against Mason Molina, but after a couple of fly outs Molina picked off Brinling 1-3-6.

That’s the second time Brinling has been picked off in the series. He drew a leadoff walk vs. Hagen Smith in the third last night and was caught in a rundown.

Arkansas 0, South Carolina 0 — Middle 1st Inning

Some more of the same for the Razorbacks in the first inning. Peyton Stovall singled on the first pitch thrown by Eli Jones and he advanced twice on wild pitches, but was stranded at third base when Kendall Diggs struck out.

Ben McLaughlin also struck out and Wehiwa Aloy lined out to left in the inning.

Pregame

Arkansas and South Carolina are getting set to get underway at noon Central for the first game of a doubleheader at Founders Park.

The second game will begin one hour after the conclusion of the first game. Both games will be nine innings, but a 10-run rule after seven innings is in effect.

Arkansas will throw lefty Mason Molina against South Carolina right-hander Eli Jones in the first game. Jones has been the Gamecocks’ Friday starter until this week.

Here is a look at Arkansas’ starting lineup for the game:

2B Peyton Stovall

1B Ben McLaughlin

SS Wehiwa Aloy

RF Kendall Diggs

DH Nolan Souza

3B Peyton Holt

LF Ross Lovich

C Hudson White

CF Will Edmunson

SC moves to revive death-penalty in double murder after federally commuted sentence

SC moves to revive death-penalty in double murder after federally commuted sentence

HORRY COUNTY, S.C. (WPDE) — A judge has started the process for South Carolina to pursue the death penalty against Brandon Council, the man accused of killing two women during an armed bank robbery at CresCom Bank in 2017.

Council is charged federally with murder after authorities said he walked into the bank to commit an armed robbery that ended with two employees being shot and killed.

He was originally sentenced to death in federal court, but the Biden administration commuted the sentences of 37 death row inmates, changing their status to life in prison.

With Council no longer facing execution under the federal sentence, South Carolina is moving to revive state charges that had been dropped before he was federally charged.

In court, prosecutors sought to add dates to the case calendar as they pursue the death penalty again.

Fifteenth Circuit Solicitor Jimmy Richardson said the state had initially been looking at April 2027 for a trial date, but the judge denied that as too soon.

“We were being as aggressive as we could be. But by July 17th, the defense will give their order. We will turn in another order, and we’ll see if we can’t come to an agreement. That way, the judge doesn’t have a lot of problems. It’s just an agreement between the two sides,” Richardson said.

During the hearing, the judge and the state were asked about any bias before moving forward.

Richardson said, “I don’t know him. So he’s from a different state, and, they ask us to let them know about any bias. I don’t know about any bias. I just, you know, it’s whatever the crime is.”

He added, “The main thing for me was to get the schedule in order so that we know where we’re going, and it looks like we’re on the road to that, but we’re not there yet.”

At one point, Council sought to represent himself in court and objected to statements made by the prosecution.

By the end of the hearing, he changed his mind and accepted representation.

Richardson said he does not expect the trial until 2028.

Recapping South Carolina’s Hot Start to Summer Recruiting As July Approaches

The world of recruiting has been hot for South Carolina so far this summer, especially in the past week. For a class than stood at just 8 commits entering June, the Gamecocks now sit with 13 and have raced up the national rankings. Here is a recap of the month of June and where the Gamecocks may be looking to add in the coming weeks.

Iveon Lewis, Richmond, Virginia native, is the highest rated recruit Shane Beamer has added in June. The 6-foot-2 receiver is playable both inside and outside for Kendal Briles next year. Andrew Ivins, Director of Scouting for 247Sports, says Lewis passes the eye test for a Power Four wide receiver and has shown the ability to overwhelm opposing defensive backs. Wide receiver is a position group the team can afford to get better at and Lewis is a great piece to do just that.

Jackson Ross is the most recent addition as he committed on June 28. From right in there own backyard, Shane Beamer and his staff land a 6-foot-3 and 215 pound line backer that is an explosive athlete. Over his sophomore and junior season, Ross has averaged 118 tackles, 18 tackles for loss, double digit sacks, and multiple turnovers.

South Carolina was able to go into rival territory this past week and land Kelvin Millington out of Bogart, Georgia. The 6-foot-3 and 180+ pounder chose the Gamecocks over Texas Tech, Virginia Tech, Cincinnati, and Georgia Tech. He brings elite size and great athleticism to the position and South Carolina has been known to develop defensive backs in recent years.

James Ross is the second player South Carolina has landed right here in Columbia. Ross is a a 6-foot-5 offensive tackle, who doubles as a star in track and field. Beamer won his services over Cincinnati, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, Coastal Carolina, Appalachian State and others.

Finally Clayton Lee is another offensive tackle the Gamecocks were able to land, this time out of the state of Florida. The 6-foot-7 and 290 pound tackle has the ideal size teams covet in the SEC. Randy Clements, South Carolina’s new offensive line coach, has two players added this month that showed help sure up the offensive tackle depth for next season and beyond.

Names to Keep an Eye on

South Carolina would like to add multiple running backs in this class, after failing to land a high school running back in each of the last two cycles. New running backs coach Stan Drayton was able to land four-star tailback Brayden Tyson back in May. Looking to add to that room here are a few names to keep an eye on: Caden Waye, Elijah Kimble, Caleb Mattison, Franklin Richardson, and Joel Bradford.

Dewey Young is a four-star offensive tackle prospect from Kalamazoo Central High School in Kalamazoo, Missouri. Young is a top 10 player in the state of Missouri and a top 300 recruit in the country. South Carolina is battling with Colorado, Vanderbilt, Purdue, and Georgia Tech in his recruitment.

Finally, four-star defensive lineman Seth Tillman is another name to watch. Tillman named the Gamecocks along with Clemson, Georgia, Michigan, and Kentucky. Defensive line coach Travian Robertson is the primary recruiter tasked with landing the great playmaker out of Rock Hill, South Carolina.
