The Florida Gators’ dominance over Florida State and the winningest coach in college baseball history continued in Jacksonville on Tuesday night. After falling behind 1-0 and then again 2-1 the Gators clawed their way back to a 4-2 win over rival Florida State. The win is the Gators’ 10th consecutive — extending a school record — and their 16th win in the last 18 games against the Noles. With two losses on the year Mike Martin’s overall record against the Gators dropped to 76-76 all-time with one more game to go.
Nolan Crisp had worked his way into the role of Florida’s closer — a lack of save opportunities kept him in the bullpen — so Kevin O’Sullivan moved him into a weekday starter spot.
