Florida Gators walk off with Buddy Reed’s home run

Buddy Reed’s walk off home run in the bottom of the 12th inning gave the No. 1 Florida Gators (11-1) a narrow victory over the visiting Dartmouth Big Green (0-4).

Reed, who was hitless before the at bat but had walked three times, isn’t a power hitter, but jumped on the first fastball he saw and parked it over the scoreboard in left field for his first home run of the season.

“At first I thought it was a pop up,” Reed said of the home run. “ Thank the Lord. God is good.”
