Florida State’s baseball team has been on a remarkable journey this season, with a 26-win improvement putting them at 49 wins so far. This is the most wins they’ve had since finishing 50-17 in 2012. In their crucial win-or-go-home game against North Carolina Tar Heels, the Seminoles displayed their strength by taking an early lead and securing the victory. Pitchers Andrew Armstrong and Connor Hults were outstanding on the mound while the offense stepped up to help FSU advance to the next round of the College World Series.
The Seminoles are now set to face off against Tennessee Volunteers, who enter the game undefeated in Omaha after beating North Carolina to reach this point. The two teams will face each other twice for a chance to make it to the championship series. However, Florida State faces a challenge in that they are facing a fresh pitching staff on the opposing side. The Seminoles must rely on their pitchers to perform at their best against one of the strongest offenses in college baseball.
In preparation for this matchup, Florida State’s starting pitcher will be RHP John Abraham while Tennessee will have LHP Zander Sechrist on the mound. The game is set to take place on Wednesday, June 19 at 3:45 p.m., airing on ESPN and Seminoles Radio Network. According to experts, Tennessee has a slight advantage over Florida State with a spread of +1.5 runs and an over/under of 13 runs scored.
As both teams prepare for this crucial game, there are several key players that will be worth watching closely. For Florida State, keep an eye out for catcher Cal Raleigh and infielder Tyler Kendall as they have been instrumental in driving runs for FSU this season.
On Tennessee’s side, Christian Moore at second base and Blake Burke at first base have been impressive hitters throughout the season, while Kavares Tears has been a standout outfielder with his speed and power.
Both teams will be looking for a big win in order to advance further into the College World Series and secure their place in history as champions of college baseball.
