In what was probably the biggest game for USF baseball in two decades, the Bulls found themselves hanging around with the top-seeded Florida Gators in a 1-1 game entering the 12th inning on Saturday night at McKethan Field.
And then they didn’t.
After the Gators Christian Hicks led off the 12th with a single, a comedy of infield errors by first baseman Joe Genord allowed him to come all the way around to score the go-ahead run. The Bulls never recovered and went on to lose 5-1, forcing themselves into an elimination game Sunday afternoon against Bethune-Cookman in the Gainesville Regional.
