Florida Atlantic junior second baseman Stephen Kerr led off the game in an ideal way against the consensus No. 1 ranked University of Florida Gators, taking the game’s second pitch over the left field wall for a lead-off home run.

However, the No. 19 Owls (15-4) were unable to score another run over the course of the next 27 outs, falling to the Gators 2-1 in Gainesville, Florida.
