No. 8 Florida State baseball team (28-11, 12-6) is gearing up for a crucial matchup against the University of North Florida (UNF) Ospreys (23-16, 14-4) on Tuesday night. After experiencing a rough patch with four consecutive losses, including a sweep by Georgia Tech, the Seminoles rebounded impressively with a perfect 4-0 week, defeating Stetson and sweeping Notre Dame. This turnaround has positioned Florida State fourth in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) standings. The Seminoles' offense has been a key factor, scoring a total of 20 runs in the first two games against Notre Dame. However, they face challenges on the mound as their usual Tuesday starter, Cooper Whited, is unavailable. Instead, Gabe Nard and Jake Echols are expected to lead the pitching efforts in what will be a bullpen game. On the other hand, UNF has been performing exceptionally well, leading the ASUN conference and recently recognized in Baseball America’s weekly bracket. The game is set to begin at 6 p.m. and will be available to watch on ESPN+.
