I want to take the series. The bullpen continues to pitch fantastically. I am stunned after last season.

Great game. We deserved the W.

I was just SO sad to see that sellout crowd of those classy Miami fans sit through 11 innings of chilly, damp, windy weather only to go home with 1 run and a big L. Ya' hate to see it.

Great start to the weekend. I know it’s only game one but the Gators have now beaten the Canes in football, basketball and baseball in the last 6 months.

I think the bullpen has pitched around 30-35 innings so far this season while only allowing 5 runs. I want to give Sully credit too. He is a huge part of that.

BS. There are plenty of stadiums that will accommodate a few thousand friends and family. Hell, share the softball field. Baseball can exist without a $60M 10,000 seat Taj Mahal at the expense of the cash cow that's paying for it. For fvks sake. The 100's of baseball fans can be inconvenienced for a season.

Taj Mahal ? That'd be an away game, amirite?


...really, is her name Lugo Hurls ? Now Lady Gators just need a Sluggo.

Did you know that Mr. Bill considered Sluggo a playdough masochist ?

Nick Pogue? Do we not have a closer? :facepalm:


Many college baseball teams don't have a so called closer. They just mix and match as the games go along. That has often been the case with Sully when you don;t have an obvious shut down guy, which we don;t have. Even the year when Byrne was spectacular, he kind of fell into that role and turned out to be outstanding for the most part. I believe that as of now Scott is kind of that guy and Sully brought him in a tie game hoping he could hold the tie and finish if we just could have scored before extra innings. But in college ball during weekend series of magnitude, you might see "closers" early in the game to stem tides. You do whatever you have to to win those types of games. The arms are plentiful, but often times good arms are not.
