ATHENS, Ga.—–A trio of Bulldogs combined on a four-hit shutout as third-ranked Georgia blanked Massachusetts 5-0 Friday at Foley Field.

Georgia (12-2) got its first hit with one out in the fourth when Tucker Bradley lined a single up the middle. Garrett Blaylock followed with a double to left center on a 3-2 offering. UMASS right-hander Sean Harney struck out Chaney Rogers and then junior Kaden Fowler drew a walk to load the bases for Patrick Sullivan. He smashed a ball to the gap in left center but Ryan Coleman hauled it in at the warning track. Georgia missed another scoring opportunity in the sixth. Cam Shepherd led off with a double and took third on a wild pitch. Harney came back to retire Bradley on a shallow flyout, and then got Blaylock and Rogers to groundout sharply to first to keep it a scoreless contest.
