This Day In UNC Baseball History: May 23

Posted May 23, 2020
For today's version of 'This Day in Recent Carolina Baseball History' we go back to 2008 and 2013 for one of the best outings of Matt Harvey's Tar Heel career and a game where the Heels were so dominant, the mercy rule had to be invoked. Plus a quick hit from 2012. On May 23, 2008, UNC took on Wake Forest in the last ACC Tournament in Jacksonville. (GoHeels.com)
