Florida tops LSU, moves 1 win from championship

OMAHA, Neb. — Florida got a dominant performance from Brady Singer, a big defensive play when LSU was threatening and just enough offense.

Now, after a 4-3 win in Game 1 of the College World Series on Monday night, the Gators are one win from their first national championship in baseball.

But with LSU all-time wins leader Jared Poche’ starting on Tuesday and first-round draft pick Alex Lange available if there’s a Game 3, the Tigers believe this best-of-three series matching Southeastern Conference rivals is just getting started.

“We’ve got to play better if we want to win this thing,” Florida coach Kevin O’Sullivan said.
