Liffrig is not listed as a starter for this weekend, but one has to think that might be by design. He posted the most innings last year in the Gopher rotation and also led in starts with 11 games.

Now on the mound, trying to salvage the series.

End 3rd:  FAU 7 Gophers 4

Rivera surrenders a HR to Minnesota in both the 2nd & 3rd.

GOOD NEWS: Rincones (3RBI) sends one over the right field wall to Whole Foods.

MORE GOOD NEWS: Goldstein (3RBI) swats his 1st LONG BALL of the season.

Good 👏 Guys 👏 In 👏 Control 👏

Rivero gives up another homer to the same Gopher, and his day is done.

Final Line: 3IP, 8H, 6R, 2K, 1BB.

LHP Drumheller now seeing his second action for the series.

End 6th: FAU 17 Gophers 8

Home Run Derby anyone?

Minnesota connects, but the Owls answer…WITH 2.

Liffrig K's 5 Owls in 2.2 IP only to be chased in the 4th as Tyler Kelder (2RBI) GOES YARD.

Then Rincones (2RBI) does it AGAIN 🔥

Steven Loden adds 3RBI 2B in the 6th.
