Pitching sinks Gators chances against FAU

Baseball has a way of humbling you like no other sport in the world can.

When Austin Langworthy stepped to the mound in the top of the ninth he was having a career day. The junior hit a grand slam in his second at bat an was 4-5 with 6 RBI. A career night for the outfielder from Williston. Kevin O’Sullivan tapped Langworthy to close the game out against FAU. He’s not primarily a pitcher but Langworthy hadn’t allowed an earned run in 7.1 innings pitched this season and had walked just one.

He walked the first batter he faced, a single gave FAU runners on the corners and a sacrifice fly narrowed the lead to just one run with a runner still on second.
