The Missouri baseball team suffered a series loss to the No. 15 South Carolina Gamecocks 9-4 on Sunday afternoon. 

The Gamecocks took Game 1 on Friday 10-2, then the Tigers fought back to even the series on Saturday 8-3 and forced the rubber match. 

South Carolina struck first and scored on a wild pitch in the top of the second inning. The Tigers responded by plating four runs in the home half of the inning on a two-run home run by Danny Corona, a drawn walk by Brock Daniels with the bases loaded, and a sacrifice fly by Jackson Lovich. 

However, the Gamecocks scored eight unanswered runs in the last three innings to seal the series victory. 

With this loss, the Tigers sit at 7-17 in SEC play, placing the team at No. 13 in the conference standings, only ahead of the Auburn Tigers.
