Sure would be nice to win at least one of these against the Hoos. Had high hopes for this season but the ECU and now the UVA series gives me pause on just how high the ceiling is.

Our perceived strength has been pretty much anything but so far this season (against any decent comp), and the offense is where many feared after needing pretty much a whole new order.

Still early, but disappointed in the veteran pitching so far.

We’ve got this. We are so much better than we have showed the last two games. Someone said we were competitive in our opening series loss to Stanford last year. Wrong. We were on Friday, but we stunk it up on Saturday and Sunday. I remember being shut out by Volksho (however you spell his name) on Sunday, and it was brutal. I was at the game, and I was honestly shocked at how bad we were at the plate. Just horrendous. We are very talented, and we definitely have time to fix things. Our defense is suspect, which kind of surprises me, and Jason having two pretty horrible consecutive outings isn’t ideal, but I genuinely think we’ll be fine.

Very close to a very bad start for the Heels.... a Nicholson throwing error and a seeing eye single....Hull saves the Heels will a long catch in center and Didawick grounds out 3-1

What’s with the attendance today?? Opening ACC series, a really good opponent, and no one there.

I know people aren’t staying home to watch the hoops game today!😂

Defense at 3rd is a problem. Almost had another error in the first game today. To me it seems like he needs a lot of effort to make his throws across the diamond. It’s not just a flick which the guys with the strong arms do.

Really interested in that both Pollard at Duke and UVa almost always shifts in two strike counts, would love to see the analytics on that

This UVA frosh has easy velocity at 97. And then a nasty slider. Impressive. Not expecting many runs from us in this one, unfortunately.

Winslow cannot be our clean up swinging like this….his at bats might be the worst of the bunch and that’s saying something given how low that bar is right now

It's definitely not an arm strength thing......more of a towards thing of late. Some non-confident throws

Two out hitting again....a double, a WP, a walk and UVa just keeps getting it done after that......

And I was looking forward to baseball this weekend after hearing the Caleb news. Guess it’s on to finding enjoyment from cutting the grass…

Definitely not the best start. My goodness, we really need to show some fire and win this. I am concerned about Cooper’s defense at third though.

Everything just seems off. I have a hard time believing this is what it’ll be like the rest of the year, but they need to figure out how to get back in rhythm
