Florida State baseball is beginning to rewrite its history books.
In his second season, Link Jarrett has put together an exceptional staff while fielding a team that feels fun to watch for the first time in years. On Tuesday night, they started 15-0 for the first time since 2013, beat Florida in Gainesville for the first time since before the pandemic and extended their program-long streak of scoring seven or more in a game to 15.
Tuesday provided FSU with their first test of the season and they received full marks on the exam. The narrative heading into the first inning centered on Florida’s top 10 status despite its (at the time) five losses and Florida State being undefeated but unranked — a few hours and a dozen runs later, FSU reboarded the buses to Tallahassee to ride home with a 12-8 win.
