Tuesday’s game against North Carolina A&T featured a key change that should stabilize the UNC Baseball lineup for the rest of the season. Veteran third baseman Mac Horvath started in right field, a move that allows a healthy Johnny Castagnozzi to get on the field at third base. The Tar Heels also have built a batting order that has power from top to bottom. (Inside Carolina)
