Game 44 - Duke 3 Carolina 1 - Series Tied 1-1

[TommyAshley]

3-0 Duke going to B7

 

[THB15]

GO GO GO GO GO GO GO.

 

[KenansDad]

French almost hit a big one and RF totally misjudged it but recovered

 

[Malachidad05]

Gifted them this win

The bad thing is that this would be a terrible loss. Really needed to sweep this series.

 

[Polkheel98]

I haven’t watched Duke this year. Is their pitching this good?

 

[THEChapelthrill]

CGSO incoming from a scrub…

 

[goheels1117]

That was only our 2nd out into the outfield in 7 innings.

 

[GraceNugent]

If my counting is correct that is 15 outs from a grounder or a ball hit to the infield

 

[CeilingIsTheRoof]

This is one of the more frustrating offensive performances I can remember in recent memory. Just doesn’t seem to be our night.

 

[THB15]

If my counting is correct that is 15 outs from a grounder or a ball hit to the infield

After 16Ks last night.

The opposite of good

 

[GraceNugent]

Ryan does have a knack for maintaining velocity

 

[Pogo_ka]

Ryan does have a knack for maintaining velocity

He's throwing BBs now

 

[GraceNugent]

9 Ks surpasses Lynch's 2026 season high of 7 (at Cal)

 

[THB15]

Lynch pitched well enough to win. No hitting lousy D.

 

[footballlover10]

F this turf

 

[GraceNugent]

9 is also Lynch's career high

 

[THB15]

Gotta love these turf choppers.

 

[premn]

It would be one thing if it was 0-0 like it should be

 

[Rockheel1650]

The opposite of good

DOOK has a very good pitching coach- he did a great job at WFU

 

[KenansDad]

This is exactly the start that was needed from Lynch! He has settled and been really good.

 

[THEChapelthrill]

Error on Coop imo. You know you have to hurry. He bobbles then sidearms one over there. Just lazy, unfocused.

 

[Malachidad05]

Really need Gavin to be productive to start this inning.

 

[TommyAshley]

Lynch through 7 - 107/74, 9Ks

 

[JimmyDaHeel]

Alright boys, let's break the ice right here!

 

[premn]

After 16Ks last night.

Progress! We’re making contact!

 

[Hhs2013]

DOOK has a very good pitching coach- he did a great job at WFU

Then why do they have one of the worst ERAs in the league

 

[THB15]

We have as many DPs and errors as hits.

 

[goheels1117]

Gallaher gets beat twice by this dudes average fastball.

 

[JAG]

Has Gavin got a hit in this series?

 

[THEChapelthrill]

Gavin is a shell of his former self. Not great when the rest of this offense is punchless…

 

[CCHeel1]

Our problem is the offense. When your best offensive stat is 3 HBP, you have issues.

 

[sweetcaroline1874]

I haven’t watched Duke this year. Is their pitching this good?

Nope. Their pitching is trash. We’re just making them look good.

 

[Psycho50]

We are making their pitchers look like Skeenes and Koufax!

 

[Hhs2013]

Gavin simply isn’t a two hole hitter right now

 

[CoachQue]

Hard contact by Owen…out, not the Heels night as of now.

 

[GraceNugent]

Hat tip to DiMartini in center, what a catch

 

[footballlover10]

Defense defense defense

 

[goheels1117]

The difference in the game is Duke catching two balls on the warning track and us dropping one.

 

[Psycho50]

Gavin simply isn’t a two hole hitter right now

His draft stock has to be plummeting. Hitting about .265 and lots of K's
