Gators break out the long ball to take series from Georgia

For two innings, it looked like the No. 9 Gators would be in a back-and-forth dogfight with Georgia on Saturday night at Florida Ballpark.

The Bulldogs jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the top of the second before UF answered with two of its own in the bottom half of the inning.

Then the Gators brought the boom.

Florida cranked four home runs and scored nine unanswered runs to defeat Georgia 9-2 and clinch the series.

Jud Fabian launched his SEC-best 19th and 20th homers of the season, both solo shots.
