Striker nets twice after Macken and Campbell-Ryce score for Tykes
Jason Scotland's brace saw Swansea come from two goals behind to earn a home point against Barnsley.
The visitors had gone in front after the interval thanks to Jon Macken's strike and a penalty from Jamal Campbell-Ryce, before Scotland reduced arrears midway through the half.
The Trinidad and Tobago striker then netted with 94 minutes on the clock to earn his side a share of the spoils.
Despite the lateness of the goal, it was no more than Roberto Martinez's side deserved after they found themselves denied on numerous occasions by the brilliance of Barnsley keeper Heinz Muller who displayed the same form that saw him linked with a move to Arsenal last season.
In an entertaining first half, both sides forged a number of opportunities but found the respective keepers in fine form.
Swansea were left particularly frustrated, as Barnsley's German stopper produced a string of stunning saves, most notably a fine double-stop from Thomas Butler and Gorka Pintado.
The Swans - missing key midfielder Darren Pratley through suspension - started brightly and saw Owain Tudur-Jones waste a fine early chance when he blazed over after Dennis Souza had blocked Butler's shot.
Lively
Barnsley looked lively themselves, though, and could have taken the lead themselves when Miguel Mostto forced a fine one-handed save from Dorus De Vries with a curling effort.
Despite this, Swansea looked the most potent side, with Mark Gower sliding an effort wide following a neat flick from Scotland.
Barnsley remained a threat too and Hugo Colace drew another smart save from De Vries with a free-kick, although Swansea ended the half as they started, with Jordi Gomez and Pintado drilling wide, while Muller did outstandingly well to deny Butler from close-range and Pintado on the rebound.
The fortunes of the two sides switched dramatically after the break, though, and the visitors found themselves two goals ahead within the first eight minutes of the half.
The opener came on the counter-attack, as Campbell-Ryce burst clear and drilled an effort that De Vries could only parry, leaving Macken with the simplest of tasks to sweep home a 48th minute opener.
Further blow
Then, with Swansea reeling, Barnsley dealt them a further blow, adding a second five minutes later as Campbell-Ryce slotted home from the spot after Williams blocked his corner with his hand.
Swansea's response was surprisingly mute and Barnsley could have gone even further in front, with Campbell-Ryce going close with an effort from the edge of the box.
The home side did manage to haul themselves back into the game with 66 minutes gone, and there was little Barnsley could do to stop it, as Scotland picked up Joe Allen's pass and rifled a fine 25-yard strike past Muller for his sixth goal of the season.
Buoyed by the goal, Swansea began to come on strong and Muller was again at his best denying Gomez and Butler in quick succession, while Allen and Pintado also drilled efforts wide.
Stephen Foster then blocked a Scotland shot as Swansea set up camp in Barnsley's half, yet when it looked as though Simon Davey's men had defended well enough to hold on, Scotland struck again from just inside the area.
