UNC-Duke Game 2 Thread

[JohnGwaltney]

Busch flies out to end the inning. Two more Heels left on base is not what Carolina needed there.

4-1 Duke M4

 

[Jarrod Hardy]

All of Carolinas hit are hard and with the outfielders in stride.

UNC leaves two more on base.

That was my concern because things were going really well for the Heels prior to the break.

We kind of playing like we did when we started the season 7-7. Pitching and fielding average at best and leaving a lot of runners on base.

They definitely need to get that edge back that carried them to such a big run after the 7-7 start.

No clue what’s going on but the Heels are getting beat in all aspects of the game.

Enwiller and Datres ground out to open T7. Two down with Busch coming to the plate.

 

[JohnGwaltney]

No production offensively and fielding/pitching errors. Bad mix!

 

[JohnGwaltney]

Busch earns the walk to put a Heel on base, but can he get pushed around?
