First of all, don't forget this is a Thursday/Friday/Saturday series instead of the usual Friday/Saturday/Sunday series.
The Canes come into this game on fire having won 25 of their last 27 games, including 15 in a row on the road and 14 in a row overall. Here are Miami's series notes if you're interested. Needless to say, the Heels have their work cut out for them.
This is a critical series for UNC's post-season prospects. Here's what Baseball America has to say about it:
North Carolina did what it needed to against Florida State, taking Sunday's game to avoid getting swept. The Tar Heels need to win at least one game in Miami this weekend to reach 15 ACC wins and finish inside the [RPI] top 45, which should be enough to get them into a regional. If they take two of three, they can vault all the way up into the top 32 and lock down an at-large spot. If they get swept, they could be in trouble.
It's that simple. Go Heels!
