Sharks to Play in Game 3 vs Commodores

The Sharks struggled to find their footing against Gulf Coast State College, falling 12-0 in a tough seven-inning loss. Despite collecting six hits, Miami Dade couldn't bring a run across the plate, while Gulf Coast steadily pulled away, scoring in the second, sixth, and a massive seventh inning.

Gulf Coast took an early 1-0 lead in the second and then capitalized on Miami Dade's pitching struggles later on.

Bray Touchstone delivered the biggest blow with a three-run homer in the seventh to seal the rout.

Jordan Martinez was dominant on the mound for Gulf Coast, tossing a complete-game shutout, allowing six hits, three walks, and striking out six. Meanwhile, Miami Dade's pitchers combined to walk 10 batters and allowed eight earned runs on eight hits, with Enrique Sierra taking the loss.
