Not even the state’s top-ranked baseball team is safe from a bad day at the park. In the case of Gainesville, which holds that distinction, that bad day came at the worst time. The Red Elephants (27-5) struggled to remain consistent at the plate and suffered costly defensive errors in their Class AAAAA state quarterfinal series with Whitewater on Tuesday at Ivey-Watson Field, and the end result was a two-game sweep to end their season.
