The Florida Gators overcame their starter giving up a three-run inning, outlasted a Texas A&M ace throwing seeds, and came back from a two-run deficit in the ninth in the SEC Tournament opener on Tuesday.
But they lost anyway, and will now have to sweat out their NCAA Tournament fate as a result.
Texas A&M’s Jonathan Ducoff smacked a three-run homer in the eighth inning and then lifted the Aggies to their 8-7 win with a walk-off single in the 10th inning, doing all of his damage against a Florida bullpen that may have betrayed the Gators for the last time this year.
