Georgia Tech falls to Georgia in Athens

Falling behind quickly, Georgia Tech lost the first game in its annual series with archrival Georgia. The Yellow Jackets gave up three runs in the first inning and went on to lose 5-1 to the Bulldogs on Tuesday at Foley Field.

Tech was off course at the plate, picking up just four hits (all singles) and striking out 15 times. Meanwhile, Georgia’s 3-4-5 hitters were 6-for-9 with three RBIs, a home run and a double.

The Jackets have now lost four in a row after getting swept this past weekend at Notre Dame. They are 4-10 when the opponent scores first.
