JJ Schwarz was in unchartered territory. Entering his fourth and final at bat on Saturday night he was 7 for his last 41 appearances, a slim .171. A bloop single found the chalk in right field, hardly the hardest ball Schwarz has hit the season, but it made all the difference.
Schwarz parlayed that bloop single on Saturday into a 2-4 day with two RBI in a 10-7 win over No. 1 Texas A&M (22-6, 4-5 SEC) that gave the No. 2 Florida Gators (27-3, 7-2 SEC) a series sweep.
“It takes all the pressure off your shoulders,” Schwarz said of his hit Saturday.
