The Miami Hurricanes won 5-2 against the Florida Gulf Coast Eagles on Tuesday night to win their ninth consecutive game. The Hurricanes win brought them to 22-6 (10-2 ACC) on the season and meant they started one of their most important weeks of the season, with No.3 Virginia visiting Miami this weekend, with a win.
FGCU scored a run in the first inning to take an early lead. Brian Ellis led off the game with a single, and Ian Farrow followed with another single to put two runners on for the Eagles. Both runners advanced to scoring position on an error, and a sac-fly from Joe Kinker scored the first run of the game.
