Day 2 of the ECU series, we've got a broadcast for the DBAP game for the first time! even though it looks like a low-level HS production it's nice to have anything.
it's 3-3 at the bottom of the fifth with UNC at the plate. Boaz went 4.2, not his best outing but he was also hurt a little by...

Heels up 2-0 early in their midweek vs Richmond. Gallaher and Winslow with RBI doubles, Kyle Percival is starting in his first action since injury took him out last year
