The Short Story: The North Florida baseball team reached double digit runs for the sixth time this season and the third time in the last five games in picking up an 11-2 road victory at the College of Charleston on Tuesday night. Christian Diaz delivered the big blow belting a grand slam homerun in the fifth inning.
LEADING OFFÂ
- The Ospreys scored the first seven runs of the contest and plated runs in six of the final seven innings en route to improving to 3-1 in road games this season
- Cooper Bradford pitched four scoreless innings to start the game before the Cougars touched Tyler Dupont for both of their runs in the contest. Anthony Delaney worked three innings of relief and combined with Alex Smith (1.0 IP) and Matthew Naylor (1.0 IP) to hold CofC hitless and scoreless over the final five frames
- At the plate, UNF pounded out 16 hits including a double and a pair of homeruns
- All nine Osprey starters logged a hit in the contest with seven players scoring runs. Seven different players recorded two hits in the game
- Chris Berry finished with a 2-for-3 night including a homer and 3 RBI while Christian Diaz had 4 RBI on his grand slam that was part of a 2-for-5 night
HOW IT HAPPENED
- After the teams traded "0" on the scoreboard for the first two innings, North Florida struck first in the top of the third as Rey Gonzalez led off the frame with a walk and move to second on a single from Blake Voyles. With two outs in the frame, Alex Merritt drove in the first run with a single to centerfield followed by another single by Patrick Ervin to score the second run of the inning
- The Ospreys added another run in the fourth as Chris Berry drew the leadoff walk and moved up a base on a single by Christian Diaz. Gonzalez executed a sacrifice bunt to move the runners up in front of a sac fly from Yahir Gurrola
- Chris Thibideau led off the fifth with a single and then stole second. Wesley Weeks pushed Thibideau to third with a single up the middle leaving runners on the corners. Following a pitching change for the Cougars, Berry collected his second straight walk to load the bases. Diaz then deposited the third pitch he saw over the left centerfield wall pushing the Ospreys in front 7-0.
- In the bottom of the fifth, CofC notched their only runs of the game against reliever Tyler Dupont. Danny Wondrack doubled to open the frame and then Riley Knudsen reached base after being hit by a pitch. Luke Manzo hit a double and Erven Roper added an RBI single to drive home the Cougars two runs
- Following a walk to start the 7th inning by Weeks, Berry stroked a two-run homer down the right field line to push the UNF margin back to 7 runs
- North Florida would add single runs in the 8th and 9th to earn the final margin. Berry drove in Merritt, who led of the 8th with a walk, while Ervin tallied a two-out RBI single in UNF's final at-bat to conclude the scoring
