Boston College Baseball Earns Comeback Win Over FGCU: The Rundown

Boston College baseball picked up a 10-4 road over FGCU on Friday night.
After three scoreless frames, FGCU got on the board in the bottom of the fourth on an RBI single, then tacked on three runs in the fifth on a solo home run and a pair of RBI singles to lead 4-0.
The Eagles answered back and had a four-run sixth inning to tie the game at 4, then followed that up with two three-run innings in the seventh and eighth.
During the stretch of scoring, Boston College had runners cross home plate on a sacrifice bunt and error, a bases-loaded drawn walk by Gunnar Johnson, two singles by Ben Williams, a double by Jack Toomey, a sacrifice fly by Kyle Wolff, and a home run by Owen DeShazo.
Boston College and FGCU continue their series on Saturday.
