Florida State (48-11) rallied from a two-run deficit in the bottom of the seventh to take the opening round game of the Tallahassee Regional with a 6-2 victory over Bethune-Cookman (33-26) on Friday night. The Seminoles were kept off the scoreboard through six innings before sending nine batters to the plate in a five-run seventh to take the lead for good. The win was FSU's 15th straight to open regional play.
Mark Hallberg and Buster Posey provided a good portion of the offense on Friday night as the two combined for five hits, three RBI's and two runs scored. Hallberg gave the Seminoles their first lead of the game as he drove home Brandon Reichert on a double to the gap in right center. Buster Posey followed with a monster, two-run homer which cleared the scoreboard in left giving the Seminoles a 5-2 advantage.
Florida State will return to action on Saturday, June 2 for day two of competition at the 2007 NCAA Tallahassee Regional. The Seminoles will square-off against Mississippi State at 7:00 pm. FSU will throw right hander Bryan Henry, while the Bulldogs will counter with left hander Justin Pigott. Saturday's game will be shown live on Sun Sports.
