Big series at home this weekend with Louisville. They were pretty highly ranked in the preseason but have lost a handful of games and fallen out of the rankings, but I suspect they are still a pretty tough out. Would love to notch a series win.

I know it’s way too early to be worrying much about the hosting regionals conversation, but I love college baseball and love having that conversation, so I will! I think we need a minimum of six and more likely seven ACC series wins to be comfortably in the top 16 hosting conversation come May. We’ve still got some tough ones left against Louisville, Georgia Tech, Clemson, and State and even series against ND, BC, Pitt, and Duke are no slouch. Would really behoove us to get to 2-1 in ACC series after this weekend so we aren’t having to climb out of a hole the rest of the way.

You don’t think the LeMoyne series win will carry weight come selection time?

louisville's going to be all the more tougher with Zion Rose back in the lineup. believe his first action of the season was this past weekend and he went 7/15 with 1 HR, 1 double, and 6 RBI against Notre Dame. similar team to UVA in that you have to out-hit them to beat them, imo.
 
Kid that threw for Louisville today just had us flummoxed completely. Louisville earned the first run. The 2nd was a gift from the officials and just bad luck. We needed to battle better at the plate in the middle innings to get to the pen sooner.
 
Down 3-1 to start the 5th. Foul out to the catcher with the bases loaded to end the 4th. Looked like it would have been ball 4.
 
Pitching is good enough to make it to Omaha but unfortunately it doesn’t appear the hitting is.
 
Be nice to get our bottom of the order with a chance of the top of order to bring them home
