2021 Baseball Season

State Wins 3 of 4 in South Carolina

Mississippi State took a tour of the Palmetto State this week, taking on The Citadel in a midweek game before playing South Carolina in a road SEC weekend series. The road trip was a successful one, as the Bulldogs cruised against the Citadel and won the first two against the Gamecocks to claim the series, finishing the Palmetto State tour with 3 wins.

State’s first and only road midweek game of 2021 was on Wednesday at The Citadel, the alma mater of Head Coach Chris Lemonis. Lemonis’ homecoming was an all-around success, as State rolled to a 10-2 victory.

The gray pinstripes were the Bulldogs’ uniform of choice for the road midweek matchup; had the Bulldogs not decided to ditch the all-black look on Sundays, this probably would’ve been the debut game of the updated gray pinstripes. As is, it was their third appearance of the season, and the win got them back above .500 to 2-1 on the season.

In the weekend series at South Carolina, State went with the exact same uniform rotation that they had in their last two road SEC series (at Auburn and at Vanderbilt). That rotation consists of three elite looks: maroon 85 jerseys with white pants on Friday, gray script “State” uniforms on Saturday, and gray pinstripes on Sunday.

Friday’s win improved the maroon 85 jerseys’ record to 9-3 in 2021, including 8-3 when paired with white pants. Saturday’s series-clinching victory extended the gray script jerseys’ undefeated streak; they’re 4-0 in 2021 and 5-0 all-time, dating back to their debut last season at Long Beach.

The gray pinstripes dropped back to .500 on the season, at 2-2, after Sunday’s extra-innings loss. Worn on both Wednesday and Sunday this week, the gray pinstripes become the first uniform of 2021 to be worn on multiple days in the same week. Last weekend’s doubleheader against Texas A&M, in which the white 85s were worn in both games, was the first time in 2021 that a uniform had been worn in more than one game in the same week.

With as many great baseball uniforms as Mississippi State has, there’s been so many opportunities to spread the wealth, and that’s a great thing. But it was cool to see the gray pins get some extra love this week, even if the second appearance was in a losing effort. We’ve now seen the gray script and gray pinstripes 4 times each this season; they should both be worn once more in the regular season, at Alabama in two weeks, bringing the total for each up to 5. Both gray uniforms are equally great in my opinion, so I’m very happy to see them both getting a solid amount of game action.
