Eagles Drop Series at No. 18 Seminoles
April 17, 2021 | Baseball
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The Boston College baseball team lost to No. 18 Florida State, 5-1, at Dick Howser Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Eagles dropped to 14-18 overall and 4-16 in the ACC, while the Seminoles improved to 18-13 and 13-10.
Â
Junior right-hander Emmet Sheehan (Darien, Conn.) was perfect the first time through the FSU order with five strikeouts. A pair of walks started the fourth and the Seminoles' first hit of the day, for the second day in a row, was a home run from catcher Matheu Nelson.
Â
Sheehan (3-3) made is through the sixth inning for the eighth time in nine starts and sixth in a row. He struck out nine and walked just the two batters, while scattering four hits, yielding four runs.
Â
BC grabbed the first lead of the day after loading the bases with nobody out in the top of the first. A wild pitch plated junior center fielder Sal Frelick (Lexington, Mass.), who singled and stole second. Lefty Bryce Hubbart then responded by striking out the next three Eagles.
Â
Hubbart (4-2) bounced back after the initial bases-loaded jam to go 5.2 innings with just one run allowed on four hits and three walks as he struck out eight.
