It wasn’t pretty, but the Florida Gators baseball team lives to see another game in the 2022 season after taking down Central Michigan, 6-5, on Sunday. The win sets up a rematch with Oklahoma at 7 p.m. EDT that UF needs to win to force a third game in the series on Monday.

He finished the day with three earned runs after five innings, but the bullpen didn’t help him out too much after taking over with men on and a four-run lead in the sixth.
The Gators may have squandered a 5-0 lead, but all that matter is the final tally. Here’s how it went down.
