GAINESVILLE, FLORIDA – Sterlin Thompson hit a walk-off two-run home run to lead Florida (33-19) to a 7-5 win over Florida State (32-19) Tuesday night at Condron Ballpark.
Logan Lacey tied a career-high with three hits, with a double and two singles. It was the redshirt senior’s 100th career start.
Davis Hare (1-3) was the tough-luck loser, allowing a two-out single to Langford in the ninth before Andrew Armstrong entered and surrendered Thompson’s home run.
After a scoreless top of the first for the Seminoles, Langford homered on the first pitch he saw from Jackson Baumeister. Baumeister settled in and retired the next three batters, with a pair of strikeouts.
The Noles immediately answered with three runs in the second inning. Brett Roberts doubled and scored on James Tibbs’ ninth home run of the season. Nick Ficarrotta walked Brock Mathis, who scored on Lacey’s eighth double of the year.
