The Florida State Seminoles are the second most successful NCAA Division I college baseball program in percentage of games won,[2][3] with an all-time win percentage of .717, second behind Texas. The Seminoles rank sixth in all-time number of total wins and second in post-season wins. The Seminoles have appeared in the NCAA tournament 59 times, advancing to the College World Series 23 times — and have appeared in the CWS Championship Game or Championship Series on three occasions (1970, 1986, and 1999). Florida State has won 11 regular-season conference championships and 20 conference tournament championships, including nine regular-season ACC championships and eight ACC tournament championships.

Florida State has had over 100 All-Americans and more than 50 players that went on to play Major League Baseball. Notable alumni include J.D. Drew, Terry Kennedy, Buster Posey, Dick Howser, and Mike Martin; the Buster Posey National Collegiate Catcher of the Year Award, presented annually to the top catcher in college baseball, is named for Florida State hall of famer, Posey, and Martin, a former player and head coach, is the winningest coach in the history of college baseball and has been elected into the College Baseball Hall of Fame.

The Seminoles play their home games on campus at Mike Martin Field at Dick Howser Stadium on the university's Tallahassee, Florida, campus and are coached by alumnus Link Jarrett.

Program history

Seminole baseball is one of the most successful collegiate baseball programs in the United States having been to 23 College World Series in 59 Tournament appearances, and having appeared in the national championship final on three occasions (falling to the USC Trojans in 1970, the Arizona Wildcats in 1986, and the Miami Hurricanes in 1999).

While under the command of head coach #11 Mike Martin (FSU alumnus, 1966), Florida State became the winningest program in the history of college baseball. Since 1990, FSU has had more 50 win seasons, hosted more NCAA Tournaments, and finished in the top 10 more than any team in the nation. Since 2000, FSU has been one of the best programs in college baseball with more victories and a higher winning percentage in the regular season than any other school. FSU made the postseason 44 years in a row, tied for the longest streak in the history of college baseball. FSU also has two 60 win seasons and twenty-four 50 win seasons. FSU has hosted more Super Regional Tournaments than any team in the nation. In 2012, FSU passed Texas for the most all-time wins in regionals and super regionals. In 2014, FSU set the record for the most National Seed selections of all-time. In 2017, FSU defeated Cal-State Fullerton, in the 1,000th College World Series game. From 1948-2022, FSU completed seventy-five consecutive winning seasons, the longest streak in the sport’s history, and was the only college baseball team to have never had a losing record until the 2023 season.

Traditions

Animals of Section B

Before the home half of the 5th inning, a group of fans known as 'The Animals of Section B', lead the Seminoles crowd in singing the Canadian national anthem, O Canada. This tradition is claimed to have started on February 13, 1988, during the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, when FSU was playing Grambling State University. During the bottom of the 5th inning, with the score tied 2–2, a member of The Animals began humming the Canadian anthem. As the Seminoles began to rally for more and more runs, more Animals joined in the humming and the team scored eight runs that inning.[5] With baseball being a sport with a long history of superstition, The Animals have maintained the tradition ever since.

Sunday Golds

Florida State players wear gold uniforms in games that are played on Sundays.

A tradition that began during the Mike Martin era, the Seminoles wear their gold uniforms for every game that they play on a Sunday.
