Summary
Mike O'Shaughnessy's eighth-inning three-run homer erased a 12-10 deficit and lifted No. 3 Georgia over No. 17 Mississippi State in Game 1 of the Athens Super Regional.
The comeback capped a wild slugfest with 25 runs, 31 hits and 11 homers, even though Mississippi State blasted six home runs and opened with a six-run second inning.
O'Shaughnessy finished with two homers and five RBIs for Georgia, while Rylan Lujo added two solo shots; Kevin Milewski hit two homers for Mississippi State and Ace Reese had three hits.
Justin Byrd stranded two runners in the ninth for his eighth save, leaving Mississippi State to face elimination Sunday behind Ryan McPherson against Georgia starter Caden Aoki.
