A Dominant Performance at Dick Howser Stadium
Florida State baseball rolled past Miami 11-1 on Friday, completing a third straight series victory and cementing a five‑win‑in‑six‑series edge over their in‑state rivals.
The offense erupted early, with Hunter Carns launching a solo homer in the third and Cal Fisher and Brayden Dowd delivering RBI singles in the second. Gabe Fraser capped the scoring with an eighth‑inning RBI single that sealed the run‑rule win.
On the mound, Trey Beard delivered six solid innings, striking out eight while allowing just one run. Reliever Brodie Purcell followed with two shutout frames, fanning five batters to preserve the lead.
Brody DeLamielleure extended his hit streak to sixteen games with a two‑RBI single, underscoring the Seminoles’ depth at the plate. The team left 14 runners on base and went 8‑for‑27 with runners in scoring position, yet capitalized on 13 walks to push across multiple runs.
Other notable performances included Max Galvin, Eli Putnam, Carter McCulley and John Stuetzer, who provided depth and support throughout the contest.
The victory not only highlights the program’s recent dominance but also ties into a broader narrative of home‑field strength; Miami has not captured a series in Tallahassee since the 2016 season.
