UNC rolls to third consecutive Super Regional with big offense early, outstanding relief pitching

If you let No. 4 North Carolina pile up runs early, the Tar Heels’ bullpen isn’t going to let you back into the game. East Carolina discovered that on successive nights, and that has UNC heading to the Chapel Hill Super Regional for a third consecutive season. The No. 1 regional seed Tar Heels built an early seven-run lead and coasted to a 9–3 win Sunday. (Tar Heel Tribune)

ECU rolls into Sunday regional final with UNC Baseball

Kane Kepley not cooling off for High-A affiliate of Chicago Cubs

The fun never ends for South Bend Cubs outfielder Kane Kepley, who went 2-for-3 on Thursday with his 28th steal (in 40 games) and his third triple. Kepley is 28-for-29 on steal attempts. Kepley, a standout at South Rowan High, Liberty and North Carolina, has been a terror all season in the Midwest League. That’s at the High A level of the minor leagues. (Salisbury Post)

Caden Glauber Carrying the Tradition, Thriving Under Pressure for UNC Baseball

UNC freshman pitcher Caden Glauber grew up on the Jersey Shore, 10 minutes from the beach. Most nights, he could be found throwing with his dad, Keith, who was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals, spent seven years in the minors, and threw 15 big league innings for the Reds, on the street. The two would spend hours tossing the ball to each other. (Inside Carolina)

Colin Hynek's Homer Flips Script, Sparks Tar Heel Comeback Over ECU

Scott Forbes called timeout. With two on in the fourth inning and UNC trailing 3-0, the Tar Heels’ skipper made his way from the third-base coaching box toward home plate to meet Colin Hynek, who had just swung over the top of a changeup from ECU's Luke Payne. "He just told me to stay short, hit something in the gap, and that he believed in me." (Inside Carolina)

Lucas: ECU Rapid Reactions

Thank goodness Caden Glauber isn't still in high school. The freshman righthander, who reclassified to be part of this year's Tar Heel team, entered the game in the fourth and was excellent. He pitched 4.1 innings, allowing just three hits and striking out eight of the 17 batters he faced. Amazingly, Carolina is now 24-0 when Glauber pitches in a game. (GoHeels.com)
