No. 13 Florida State took game one of its in-season series against No. 8 Florida on Wednesday night, beating the Gators 3-1 in front of 1,738 fans at JoAnne Graf Field behind a pair of Isa Torres home runs and a fourth-inning RBI single from Shelby McKenzie.
Per FSU Sports Info, the crowd was the ninth-largest regular-season crowd in JoAnne Graf Field history. The victory moved the Seminoles to 40-7 (15-3 ACC) and dropped Florida to 43-7 (16-5 SEC). FSU also closed its home schedule with a 31-2 record at JoAnne Graf Field — 42-3 over its last 45 regular-season home games — and has now won eight of the last nine meetings against the Gators.

Jazzy Francik started for FSU, giving up one run on five hits with two walks and no strikeouts in three innings on 55 pitches. Florida grabbed the lead immediately when center fielder Taylor Shumaker took the second pitch of the game over the right field wall for her 15th home run of the season, but the Gators failed to capitalize further, stranding two runners to end the frame.
Florida State answered immediately in the bottom of the first as shortstop Isa Torres worked a full count and deposited a 3-2 pitch over the right field wall for a leadoff home run to tie the game at 1-1. FSU went quietly from there, with Jaysoni Beachum fouling out and Ashtyn Danley and Anna Hinde both grounding out to short.
