Paid for espn plus. Seven day free trial. Couldn't get the game. Cancelled subscription. Charge me 4.99. About a dollar a minute. What a joke. Never again

That could be the dagger, as an unlucky set of circumstances add up to widen the gap to five runs again.

Bad luck there for Coletti, who sees a bad call bring the count full before giving up a two run shot to CF. The swing didn't have that much power behind it, but the ball was high enough that the wind carried it just beyond the fence.

In comes Cooley, #FAU down 10-5 in the T7.

Cooley settles down after giving up a single to left. Still, seems like damage is done with the Seminoles doubling our run and hit total as we enter the bottom of the seventh.

Cooley gives up a single to left before forcing back-to-back flyouts to LF to retire the side. That brings #FSU hit total to 16, doubling #FAU's.

Owls will have their work cut out for them, down 5 as we head to the stretch.

I'm going to eat my words, because Morgensen pulls FAU within three runs again thanks to his second two-run homer of the day!

THIS TEAM DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO QUIT! 👊👊

Morgensen knocks his SECOND two-run HR of the game with a MOONSHOT to left. We're still in this y'all!#FSU 10 - #FAU 7, top of the 8th.

Owls leave another runner stranded in the eighth. The Seminoles punish us immediately with a two-run homer in the top of the 9th.

That's the dagger. A two-run HR for the Seminoles makes this a five run game in the top of the ninth. That's #FSU's 20th hit of the game. And no, that is not a typo.#FSU 12 - #FAU 7, Top of the 9th

I wonder if we have any pitching left to win a loser's bracket game tomorrow?

Well, we will DEFINITELY be recruiting that area hard for next year!

Big hill to climb, with not a lot of time.

#FSU adds one more before their half of the ninth inning comes to an end. #FAU will have a massive hill to climb, down 13-7 with just three more outs at their disposal.

Noles just ate up an under performing FAU pitching staff. Any time you give up more than three in a single inning, you are in trouble. The bats tried to keep us in this. But today, the arms let us down. Lets turn around and win tomorrow.

Final. Owls fall to FSU, 13-8.

U-G-L-Y, that's the only way to describe this one folks. Despite a solid day offensively, we were pushed around on the mound today. Not sure if it was due to the pressure, the crowd, or the wind, but you will lose every time if you allow a team like FSU to hit 6 HRs in a single game.

FINAL. #FSU 13 - #FAU 7

Owls give up 20 hits today in their first meeting against the Seminoles in over two decades.

FAU will play the LOSER of #UGA & #Mercer, tomorrow at noon. The loser of that game will be eliminated.
