Always good to beat Miami. It's also always good to be the #1 team in the country. FSU baseball continues to impress going undefeated this week including 3 wins over #18 Miami. Very impressive performance by the Noles. They now move to 33-7 overall with only 2 losses in ACC play. Let us get back to these games though. Miami has perhaps the most annoying fan base in the country. My first sporting event as a student at FSU was the game that snapped Miami's winning streak in football. That whole game the Hurricane faithful were loud, obnoxious, and cocky. After the game they were still loud, obnoxious, and cocky trying to call back to past games. It was great to see those people watch their team lose. Whenever FSU is able to knock them off it is incredibly sweet.
This win came on a walkoff in 10 innings. An even better way to beat the Canes. Sherman Johnson had the walk off single and went 2 for 6 in the game. Johnson has been my favorite Seminole baseball player for the last three seasons. I love the way that guy plays, and it was great to see him deliver the victory. I wouldn't mind that guy being picked up by the Orioles after this season.
Hopefully, Florida State will be able to keep this momentum going and maintain their top ranking. Mike Martin is a really good man and seeing him get a title would be amazing. There is not a more deserving coach in the country. I sure hope they pull it off. Up next for the Seminoles will be the Rhode Island Rams.
