TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Troy secured its first-ever road win against Florida State by shutting out the No. 20 Seminoles on a hot afternoon inside Dick Howser Stadium. Orlando Ortiz tossed six scoreless innings as the Trojans evened the series with a 3-0 victory, their first win against Florida State since 1980.
Nic Nolan broke up a perfect game and the scoreless tie in the sixth inning with a solo home run, a bomb that went over the Seminole bullpen in left field and exited the stadium. Ortiz (4-4) struck out six and prompted two double plays as part of his outing.
