The Miami Hurricanes did some spring cleaning this weekend.

They just didn’t finish the job.

Poor fielding and sloppy base running doomed the Canes from achieving what they had hoped for Sunday against the Florida State Seminoles — most significantly a victory.

Instead, the Seminoles took advantage of three UM errors to salvage the weekend series with a 6-5 victory at Mark Light Field.
