Baloyi was on the bench as Bafana easily beat Malawi 3-1 at Chichiri Stadium while Nzama made his 26th appearance.
Mashaba makes one change
Coach Shakes Mashaba has named uncapped defender Lucky Lekgwati as the only change to his Bafana squad for the second leg of the Cosafa Cup final against Malawi on Saturday.
The Orlando Pirates player replaces Thabang Molefe, who returns to his Norwegian club Lyn Oslo and is unavailable for the match in Durban next Saturday.
Molefe played a key role in South Africa's 3-1 victory in the first leg in Blantyre on Saturday.
He was one of only three players who went to the World Cup in June to be used in the match against Malawi, where Mashaba experimented with home-based players and used five previously uncapped players.
South Africa, the top ranked side in the region, are attempting to win the southern African championship for the first time.
Malawi have retained the same 18-man squad for the return leg, despite the defeat by South Africa.
Coach Kim Splidsboel named his squad on Sunday, keeping faith with his players including goalkeeper Navigator Dzinkambani whose errors allowed South Africa to take a comfortable two-goal lead into the second leg.
