FORT PIERCE, Fla.- The #6 Florida SouthWestern Buccaneers hit four home runs and got 4 1/3 outstanding innings from their bullpen as they blew by the Indian River Pioneers 11-3 in non-conference action Tuesday in Fort Pierce. 

After a pair of quiet innings to start the ballgame, the Bucs cracked the scoreboard first in the 3^rd as Nick April-Gath homered for the second straight game, a three run shot and later in the inning Robbie Demetree hit his second grand slam in a week to blow the Bucs lead open to 7-0 in the blink of an eye.

The Bucs home run derby continued in the 5^th as Aiden Talarico began the frame with a solo shot to left to make it 8-3 and after an RBI double by Keenan Jabeth, Andy Perez blasted a two run shot of his own to make it 11-3 FSW.

The Bucs bullpen took it from there as Gavin Kindell and Brady Jones silenced the Pioneer bats, putting up three straight zeroes to finish the game and kick in the run rule as FSW took the game 11-3 in seven.

Demetree led the way, going 2-4 with his 3^rd inning grand slam and two runs scored while Jabeth also collected a pair of knocks, going 2-4 with a run scored and an RBI.
