Florida State baseball threw a combined no-hitter in a 12-1 run-rule victory over Bethune-Cookman on Tuesday, March 17.

FSU's pitchers allowed no hits, but issued three walks and hit three batters, and allowed one runner to reach on a fielder's choice. The lone run came when Brodie Purcell hit a batter with the bases loaded. The Seminoles' (17-3) pitching staff struck out nine, and Cooper Whithed recorded a team-high six strikeouts over 3.1 innings.

Purcell struck out one over 1.2 innings of relief, and Cole Stokes ended the game with two innings of relief. He had a pair of strikeouts, and he allowed a walk in the seventh inning that was nullified by a game-ending double play.

Myles Bailey recorded four RBI, which gives him a team high 25 RBI this season, including an RBI double and a three-run home run. His double scored the first run of the night, followed by a pair of fielders choice that scored two.

The Seminoles added four runs in the second inning, with an Eli Putnam single and an error on a Noah Sheffield grounder, allowing four runners to cross the plate. A wild pitch and an error in the sixth scored a pair of runs before Bailey hit his three run home run to secure the run-rule.
