    This ump seems to be calling a lot of outside pitches as strikes. Must want this to get over.

    Can Lastres save the day after all? What a turn of events if so.

    A couple of times he has acted like he's been crossed up on the pitch. Like he has a different edition wrist band than the pitcher does.

    It certainly wasn't a great outing by any stretch, but he gave up one hit

    Been a long time since I've seen Gator baseball blow a 5 run lead in the 9th. Gotta give USF credit for getting good swings on the ball and just keep battling. Just imploded as a team. Oh well. Bring the egos down a little and realize they have to stay focused until the game is over. Just 1 game in a long season, but maybe an early teachable moment.
