The third time, the Florida Gators's sophomore left nothing to chance.
A walk-off home by Langworthy in the 11th inning delivered the Florida Gators a 3-2 win against Auburn and returned them to the College World Series.
After two diving catches by the Tigers squashed scoring opportunities, Langworthy ripped a 1-2 pitch by freshman All-American closer Cody Greenhill deep into right field. Langworthy’s line drive caromed off the glove of Auburn freshman right fielder Steven Williams and over the fence.
After Langworthy rounded the bases, the sophomore from Williston was mobbed at home plate by the elated Gators as an announced crowd of 5,958 — the eight-largest in school history — went wild.
