Buchholz baseball vs Martin County in FHSAA Class 6A Final Four live updates

When Aidan Kastensmidt took the mound last Friday night, he had no idea what time it was.

The skies over Pace were dark. The clouds overcast. If you told him it was 8 p.m., he’d believe you.

Instead, it was past 11 p.m. – and into Saturday morning in Gainesville – when the Buchholz baseball pitcher started his biggest game of the season.

It didn’t matter, though. Him and the Bobcats were locked in, and no elements were going to be in their way.

BHS defeated Class 6A No. 1 Pace 10-6 – hours after a 10-2 win – to advance to the FHSAA Final Four for the third year in a row. Now the Bobcats will face a team that had their own miracle occur to reach this round.
