Michael Busch, Zac Gallen among 34 Tar Heels in pro baseball

Posted May 2, 2026
After a slow first month, former UNC first baseman Michael Busch has found his rhythm with two home runs and 10 RBI in the last two weeks. He went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in the Chicago Cubs' 6-5 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, a game that also put Busch across the diamond from another Tar Heel, Diamondbacks pitcher Zac Gallen.
