The LSU Tigers baseball team suffered another setback on Saturday, dropping an 11-1 decision to the Florida Gators in just seven innings.
Florida’s pitching staff proved relentless, with starter Liam Peterson delivering a stellar outing that saw him fan 11 Tigers while walking just one batter.
The Gators’ bats were equally potent; Ethan Surowiec supplied the bulk of the damage with an RBI double and a two-run homer, while Cash Strayer, Brendan Lawson and Landon Stripling added their own long balls.
LSU managed only a solitary run, a solo homer from Steven Milam, and saw starter Marcos Paz absorb the loss as the Tigers’ offense sputtered.
SEC Tournament Outlook
The defeat marks the fifth straight loss for LSU, dropping their overall record to 29-26 and their SEC slate to 9-20, which leaves them seeded 14th heading into the upcoming SEC Tournament.
Florida, now 36-18 overall, is eyeing a top-four finish and the double bye that comes with it, having won three straight games and posting a 13-5 road record in 2026.
