Florida A&M at Florida

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (Interstat) — The surging Florida Gators host the Florida A&M Rattlers in a midweek non-conference matchup Wednesday at Alfred A. McKethan Stadium.

First pitch is scheduled for the evening under clear skies with a forecast temperature of 75 degrees.

Florida (11-1) has been dominant early, winning 11 straight games after a season-opening loss. The Gators are coming off a road series sweep at Miami, where their bullpen shined. A key figure in that relief corps is Ricky Reeth, who tossed four hitless innings with five strikeouts in the series finale. On the season, Reeth has a 3.86 ERA over 9.1 innings with 12 strikeouts.

The Rattlers (3-8) snapped a six-game skid with a 9-4 win over Central Connecticut on Sunday. They will look to build on that momentum against their in-state foe. A player to watch for Florida A&M is Jesus Campa, who delivered four scoreless innings of two-hit ball in Sunday’s victory.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 7-2 victory for Florida.

Following this game, the Gators begin a three-game home series against High Point on Friday. The Rattlers return home to Tallahassee to start a series against Villanova on Friday.
