You have eyes. If they work, and you watched the Florida Gators’ 6-3 loss to the Texas Tech Red Raiders in Omaha at the College World Series late Sunday night, you know what I’m going to write here.
I don’t have to tell you that Florida played astonishingly poor defense on the collegiate game’s biggest stage, that JJ Schwarz looked overmatched in his return to the lineup and the field after a hand injury, that Brady Singer pitched gamely and brilliantly until he didn’t, that the combination of all of those three things led to the Red Raiders building a lead that Florida’s anemic offense couldn’t meaningfully dent outside of a late Nelson Maldonado homer.
