LUBBOCK, Texas — The Gators 2019 season officially ended when Jacob Young grounded out to second base with the tying run on third, but it was over in the fourth inning in an exaggerated microcosm of the entire season.
You couldn’t tell the Gators bats that. They’ve been in bad situations all season long and have dirt under their nails from four months of crawling out of holes dug by the pitching staff. They almost did it again on Friday but fell just short losing to Dallas Baptist 9-8.
“The way the game went is kind of a fitting end to our season,” Kevin O’Sullivan said.
