Florida was firing on all cylinders until blowing a gasket late. If the Gators can fire up their engines again on Saturday...
It was supposed to be the resumption of a rivalry between Florida and FSU.
Instead, for much of Friday night's 13-4 win by Florida in Game 1 of its Super Regional against the Seminoles, it was a hammer pounding a nail.
Florida scored four runs in the bottom of the first, then scored in four other innings, and got 5.2 scoreless innings from starter Logan Shore on the night, while flashing some of the incredible defense in the field that has the Gators in line to be the best defensive team in the history of college baseball.
