When Florida State is run-ruled at home on back-to-back days, it's a result of poor hitting, pitching and at times fielding.
But the bullpen blues were a major issue in all three games, even a 5-4 walk-off win on Friday night. FSU's bullpen logged a heavy workload in the three games against Wake Forest, allowing 16 earned runs in 12.2 innings.
The hits, walks and wild pitches piled up, contributing to a 12-0 loss on Saturday and a 17-2 defeat on Sunday.
"It’s not a strike-throwing contest," FSU coach Link Jarrett said. "You’re trying to pitch. And there are going to be some walks. But ultimately the command and the execution trumps all you do out there."
