Alex Lodise plays hero as FSU’s captain hits for the cycle with a walk-off grand slam to top UF, 8-4

What a day for Florida State baseball.

Cal Raleigh earned a nine-figure contract, Cam Smith earned the call to the majors after only 32 minor-league games, and most importantly, for the 2025 crew, the Seminoles tied the series with Florida in a heart-stopping, walk-off, 8-4 win over their rival Florida Gators.

“Just your casual Tuesday night 8-4 ball game,” joked Link Jarrett afterward.

Alex Lodise played hero in the ninth, sending the first pitch of his AB into the stands and the night, with a walk-off grand slam, after FSU allowed two runs to the Gators in the half inning prior.
