TAMPA, Fla. – Jacksonville baseball fell to South Florida, 13-3, on the road Tuesday night. A Dolphin 2-1 lead in the fourth was overtaken by a flurry of USF runs in the last three innings. 

The Dolphins struck first in the opening frame when Roger Vergara launched a solo home run to right field, giving Jacksonville an early 1-0 lead.
 

Only eight days ago vs USF, Vergara launched a homer to right field on his first at-bat of the game. 

An inning and a half later, USF’s Eli Thomas came around to score on a base-hit after a lead-off walk and a stolen base. 

The score remained knotted until the top of the fourth, when freshman Logan Baratta hit his first home run in a Dolphin uniform. 
 

The Bulls answered with a four-run inning in the bottom half, scoring two on an E5 and a passed ball. 

South Florida continued to apply pressure late, adding a run in the sixth and three more in the seventh to put the game out of reach. In the first six innings of the game, USF’s leadoff batter reach safely, with three of them due to a walk. 

Vergara, Baratta, Spelman, and Griffin Pomper each recorded a hit for Jacksonville, which finished with four hits on the night. 

Defensively, Archer Ogbourne made yet another spectacular diving catch in the gap.

In addition, Ben-Baker Livingston used a quick move to pick off a Bull at first. 
 

Griffin Pomper caught another runner at second, this time with a perfect throw to tag out USF’s Jevin Relaford.
 

Relaford is in the top 30 nationally in stolen bases. 

Gavin Dicks took the loss on the mound, allowing four runs across 2.0 innings while striking out four. Ben Baker-Livingston got the start and allowed one run over 2.0 innings.

The Dolphins sit at 10-11, and 1-2 in ASUN play. Their next test awaits in Charlotte, North Carolina against Queens University. First pitch of the three-game series is scheduled for Friday at 6 PM est.
