Josh Rivera stood in the batter’s box, down 0-2 in the count. With the lowest batting average in the Gators’ starting lineup and two strikes counted, Rivera didn’t have the faith from the crowd in Florida Ballpark.
He kept his composure, swung and made contact on the third pitch of the at-bat. The line drive scored two, and the Gators took the lead for the first time that day. Rivera let out a thundering scream from first base and the crowd rejoiced.
