Lynn scored a run in the bottom of the ninth to win game one, 3-2, and cruised to a 13-3 win in game two, sweeping Friday's Sunshine State Conference doubleheader from the Moccasins at Boca Raton.
The Fighting Knights improved to 34-13, 10-7 in the SSC, while the fourth-ranked Moccasins slipped to 33-9, 13-4 in the SSC.
In game one, the Moccasins rallied from a 2-0 deficit to tie the game at 2-2 on Trae Gore's two-run homer with two outs in the top of the eighth innuing. They had a chance to take the lead in the ninth when Colin Kish singled to left with two outs, but Nick Stanley was thrown out at the plate by left fielder Gabe MacDougall to end the inning.
In the bottom of the ninth against Daniel Tillman, Lynn got a one-out single from Jason Ten Eyck, who then was called safe on a steal of second, a call the Moccasins disputed unsuccessfully. On a 2-2 pitch Chad Crowe delivered a single to center that scored Ten Eyck with the winning run.
Tillman took the loss, dropping his record to 3-2. Dan Wright went the distance for Lynn, striking out 11, to improve his record to 10-2.
In game two, Lynn scored all the runs it needed with a first-inning grand slam homer from Paddy Matera off Stephen Batman. The Knights reached Batman (8-2) for seven runs in two innings.
Robbie Shields had three hits in the game for FSC, while Stanley had two with a pair of RBI.
The Moccasins and Knights conclude their series Saturday at 11 a.m.
