UNC catcher Jacob Stallings steps in as ‘spiritual leader’ after Colin Moran’s injury
Posted Apr 2, 2012
North Carolina catcher Jacob Stallings has taken a beating behind the plate in the past few weeks, catching ball after ball from UNC’s loaded and ever-cycling arsenal of pitchers. That tiring style of play wasn’t helped on Sunday in UNC’s series-clinching walk-off win, when Stallings took a tackle at home plate in the top of the first inning from a Demon Deacon runner attempting to score.
