Florida 8, FSU 2: Gators finish sweep of Seminoles, pad RPI with big-time win

After losing a home series to a top-10 team over the weekend — enough for one national pundit to term the weekend "brutal" — Florida's No. 2 baseball team rebounded against FSU once again on Tuesday.

And once more, it was the Gators' bats that got right against the Seminoles. Florida pushed across runs in six separate innings, and Peter Alonso, Dalton Guthrie, and Peter Alonso all collected three hits in an 8-2 victory in Tallahassee.

The offensive revival — keyed by Guthrie early, as he scored a run and accrued two RBI by the fourth, and by Schwarz late, as he drove in the Gators' next three runs — was a welcome sight after Florida scored just two runs over its final 19 innings against Mississippi State on the weekend.
