UNC's late-game heroics are the talk of college baseball, but is the model sustainable?

Posted Jun 8, 2024
Altogether, North Carolina now has 3 final at-bat wins in the 4 total wins so far in the NCAA Tournament. The amount of offense outside of the late innings is also noteworthy — and worrisome. In their 4 wins, the Tar Heels have scored 29 total runs. Of those 29 runs, 11 have been scored in the 9th inning or later, including 3 of their 8 runs Friday night. (Saturday Road)
