That's the most RBI Buckley has posted since back in March. Another player making a difference was Andrew Woods, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with one run and one RBI.

Florence has been performing well recently as they've won 13 of their last 16 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 20-6 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 9.3 runs over those games. As for Gautier, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 12-18.

As of now, neither Florence nor the Gators have any future games scheduled.
