Florida pitcher Brandon Sproat throws hard. Just talk to LSU’s Dylan Crews.
The Gators and Tigers are presently squaring off in the Men’s University Globe Series finals and Sproat experienced his hands full right off the bat in Video game 1. Crews, who received the Golden Spikes Award this year as the best player in the state, led off the sport for LSU. You really don’t want to give a hitter like him everything to strike around the heart of the plate, but on a 1–2 rely, Sproat went a little far too considerably within on Crews and drilled him in the ribs with a 100 mph fastball.
Many thanks to ESPN’s ump cam (which it has also used on Sunday Night time Baseball) viewers at house received to see essentially what Crews did as Sproat’s heater barreled down on him.

Ouch.
The blunder arrived again to bite Sproat as Crews state-of-the-art to 2nd on a groundout and scored on a one to remaining, providing LSU an early 1–0 lead. The Tigers went on to get the opening match, 4–3. Florida acquired revenge, nevertheless, in Game 2 on Sunday, embarrassing LSU in a 24–4 rout. That sets up a winner-get-all Game 3 on Monday night.
