UM vs. FSU baseball at The Light: ‘The atmosphere will be insane’

One pitch. One moment.

That, more or less, has become University of Miami baseball coach Jim Morris’ mantra as his Hurricanes take on arch-rival Florida State in a three-game weekend series beginning 7 p.m. Friday at Mark Light Field.

The Hurricanes (18-19, 9-9 Atlantic Coast Conference) defeated FAU on Wednesday night to take that first step toward their goal of making it to the NCAA Baseball Tournament. Now, here come those Seminoles (18-19, 9-9), with a 149-128-4 edge in the series that dates back to 1951 and Miami on the short end of the rivalry in recent years (5-11 since 2012).
