This Florida Gators 10-3 win over Jacksonville was sponsored by the long ball, a theme for the Gators this season. The Gators hit three home runs on Wednesday night against Jacksonville, bringing their total to 36 on the season, 1.57 per game.
“I think it’s more of a mindset,” Deacon Liput said. “I think a lot of the older guys are doing a really good job of staying in their legs and, believe it or not, not trying to do too much, which is resulting in everybody having a good swing, putting good swings on balls.”
Florida’s 36 home runs are more than double the pace the 2017 National Champion Gators per game.
